Okay, i am not any professional tutor or wad, i just finished my
o levels
From p5 to P6 is onli 1 year, depending on the student's ability
and current grasp of the subject-which is the language chinese.
WIth <1 year i think the possibility of getting the student to
score is quite high, first thing is to make the student believes he
can do it(i know it is easy to say than to be done).
As a student, i think the tutor needs to be very familiar with
those freaking questions where most will find it ambigious, and
fall in a state of "Should i take this answer or that?" Thus, you
need to go to the popular book store and look at the textbooks, for
primary 5. Do note the different 'syllabus', if i remember
correctly, during my time, there are 2 textbooks
After that, take that textbook and look at the past exam papers,
and see if there are any patterns. Like for the comprehension, the
level of difficulty of the text itself to the text passages in the
textbook
AFter that, compare the past exam questions to those of the
assesment books, depending on the student's ability, you might
wants to try to get easy questions at first, than slowly move on to
the normal questions, after that buy assesment books that have
questions that are slightly more difficult than the current PSLE
questions
