1.O-Level - Additional Mathematics
OVERVIEW
The aims of O-Level Additional Maths are
for students to:
Understand and apply mathematical
concepts and skills in different contexts
Organize and analyze data and information
through the suitable techniques and solutions
Solve higher-order thinking problems by
inferring, writing mathematical explanations, backing up arguments using proof.
Most A Math topics help students develop
metacognitive skills, communication, and reasoning. Hence, when it comes to
Additional Maths, it’s essential to support learning from other subjects, such
as Physics or E Maths. This is a critical subject for those intending to pursue
a math-related higher study.
O-level A Maths topics and syllabus are
more in-depth, exposing students to topics such as trigonometric, exponential,
linear, and quadratic functions.
OUR A MATH
TUITION
Additional Mathematics can be a
challenging subject at O-Levels. This is why students need constant practice
and do regular self-checks to improve. This way, they can improve on weak
topics and build a robust conceptual understanding.
Our Additional Maths tuition aims for
students in Singapore to have:
CONTENT
MASTERY
Understanding why, how and when each
formula is used
Applying mathematical logic in real-life
situations
ANSWERING
TECHNIQUES
Analyzing and comprehending the question
requirements
Using relevant formulas and steps to solve
each question systematically
KEY
TAKEAWAYS
Fostering a Kaizen mindset that will
motivate your child to relentlessly strive to improve
Relying on understanding the topics and
formulas, rather than revising to remember
Instantly identifying and recognizing
different types of questions, along with the necessary steps
Self-reflecting to see if there are gaps
in their detailed understanding and clarify when needed
Learning to think-out-of-the-box when
tackling complex questions that ask for ingenious solutions
Knowing how to cope with stress and learn
proper time management when taking the exams

2.O-Level - Elementary Mathematics
THE
IMPORTANCE OF ELEMENTARY MATHEMATICS
O-Level E Math requires a clear understanding
and a lot of practice. It can be considered one of the essential subjects. It
is taken by most, if not all, secondary students in Singapore. It is also one
of the deciding subjects for entry to most Polytechnic courses and serves as an
essential base for JC Mathematics.
It may be a walk in the park for some,
but it can be challenging to understand for others. However, under the ideal E
Math tuition, it can be a subject many would appreciate once they can grasp the
concepts.
According to E Math tutors, here are some
simple tips on approaching this secondary school subject:
·
Understanding the
formulas
Mastering the formulas is not just
understanding of the formulas, it’s also knowing how and when to apply them.
This could mean the difference between scoring an A1 or a mere pass.
·
Constant practice
Do attempt past-year papers or the
Ten-Year Series to expose you to possible questions that you will encounter
during O-Levels. It helps test your understanding of the topics, so you know your
strengths and weaknesses.
It is recommended to try and master the
topics in Paper 1 first because they are comprised of the Lower Secondary
topics. After all, they are the baseline of understanding how the topics work.
Upper Secondary topics involve more
formulas, such as trigonometry, arc length and sector area, and statistics.
Hence, before trying out the questions,
the students should understand the formulas inside out.
While practice is challenging, the
rewards that come with it is worth it.
·
Answer the questions
properly
When answering questions, you must pay
attention to how you express them. Ensure that you include every working of
your answer, as an omission from an essential working can cost you some marks.
In most cases, the final answer only
gives one mark, called the answer mark. Hence, not assume that you would get
full marks as long as you get the final answer because most of the marks given
in the questions are method marks.
·
Read the
instructions carefully
Don’t rush to start your paper, because you
may miss crucial details in the instructions, which can cost valuable marks.
For example, some questions may require
you to leave your answers un fractions, to the nearest cent, to the nearest
second, or in two decimal places. Do note that they will penalize for wrong
rounding off of answers.
After all, if you know the answers, it
will be a pity to waste valuable marks because of this oversight. Read each
word carefully, and have your results prove your best.

4.O-Level - Chemistry
OVERVIEW
O Level Chemistry is a complex subject
that helps students in Singapore learn about the elements and compounds that
comprise the world we live in. O Level Chemistry consists of the principles and
concepts related to the subject, along with current applications of chemistry,
and focuses on practical skills.
Because Chemistry offers knowledge on the
complexity of applied science and scientific developments, the concepts can be
fascinating to some, while confusing for others.
Should students be aiming for a JC in
Singapore, it’s recommended for them to ace their O Level Chemistry, especially
if it’s pure Chemistry, because O Level and A Level Chemistry are
interdependent.
Even if that is not the case, scoring
well will equal a lower aggregate score, opening doors to more options and
being able to understand higher-level Chemistry concepts in future studies,
particularly if the subject is pure Chemistry.
Should you be interested in engaging a
Chemistry tutor for your child, this is the right place for you! At Glenn Lee
Tuition Centre, we provide experienced tutors that conduct engaging tuition
lessons that will help ensure your child is ready for any examination.

The 3 Cons
Method
When answering Paper 2 of Chemistry, it’s
best to use this method, which consists of:
Context
Consider and deduce the critical
requirements from the question (may include chemical formulas, the full name of
the compound, tables, diagrams, etc.)
Concept
Apply the appropriate concepts learned to
explain the contextual cues the questions are providing
Conclusion
Answer the question directly by linking
your answers back to the questions’ main point
WHAT WE
HOPE FOR CHILDREN TO TAKE AWAY FROM OUR TUITION
·
Cultivating a
Kaizen mindset that will encourage them to keep improving
·
Relying on
conceptual understanding and critical thinking rather than just memorizing
·
Being able to construct
vital links between topics and understand Chemistry as a whole and in parts
·
Self-reflecting to
see if they are missing something in their knowledge and seeking clarification.
Quickly identifying and recognizing different types of questions and their
topical solutions
·
Quickly identify
and recognize the topics the questions belong to and their standard solutions
·
Knowing how to
handle stress and manage time properly when taking the exam

5.O-Level - Physics
OVERVIEW
Physics is a unique subject. After all,
unlike Chemistry and Biology, O-Level Physics includes heavy involvement of
calculation, formulas, and in-depth theory.
This subject aims to equip students in
Singapore with a deep understanding of topics such as energy, matter, and
interrelationships. Moreover, there is a deep application of multiple
principles, theories and laws to explain various behaviors in the universe.
Sometimes, it may even apply mathematical patterns or models. Many students in
Singapore may find the O-Level Physics’ concepts incomprehensible, abstract,
and challenging to relate to. Hence, this subject may be inadvisable to take if
the students do not have any interest or are not strong in Mathematics.
However, it’s beneficial if students can
do well in this subject through Physics tuition in Singapore, because not only
will it play a role in your overall O-Level results, but it would also help if students
are thinking of a Diploma or Degree relating to Engineering or Programming
because they would need a strong knowledge on the Physics principles and
concepts. Usually, due to the challenging nature of this subject, it is best to
sign up for a secondary tuition class to firmly grasp the new concepts and
formulas and be on the way to ace O-Level Physics.
If you are keen to look for an O-Level
private physics tutor, Glenn Lee is here to help you.
