Maths tuition...
Works this way:
1. Diagnostic test - the test has a limited time and you will do
one that is your level (e.g Sec 2 student will do Sec 2 diagnostic
test)
2. Based on the test results, they will plot a graph, which will
show how strong your foundations. If your foundation goes all the
way back to primary school, you start from a primary school level
Maths and move all the way up. If the test shows that you are
strong, you might do another diagnostic test of another level say
Sec 3.
3. Every level has 200 booklets. 10 worksheets per booklet. 1
worksheet has 2 pages (A and B). In total, you are doing 400
worksheets worth of questions.
4. Once you have finished the 200 booklets, you will go for a level
test. If you pass, you move on. If you fail, you re-do or repeat
that particular level of worksheet. Depending on your weakness, you
repeat a certain set(s) or the whole 200 sets, then go for test
again.
5. As you progress, your instructor will chart your progress. If
they notice too many mistakes for a particular set, they will
repeat you till you understand how to do it. Then you move
on.
6. One booklet per day to be done (or lesser, depending on the
level. If the level is rather high, say level K, you might do half
a booklet instead. Depends on instructor and your own
progress)
Don't use this as a comparison to Singapore's education system...
you will fall very behind...
