##### PERSONALISED STRATEGY
Every child's strengths and weaknesses are different! Our personalised analysis of your child's paper serves to formulate an approach that would maximise your child's strengths in the English paper.
This run of the Critical Analysis Workshop is over.
Give Your Child An Impactful Boost For The PSLE During This Final Lap!
If your child has been going through practice papers without really benefitting from the practice, this course is for him/her. Adopting our Critical Thinking and Predictive Reading approach, our curriculum specialists designed these short intensive workshops to strengthen your child's language competency and examination performance in the run up to the PSLE.
Here's How It Works
Your child will attempt a timed-practice of Paper 1 and/or Paper 2 in exam conditions, after which we take them through a Critical Analysis of the questions, passages and answers to create a deep understanding of how to apply their knowledge to improve in their PSLE English paper.
Attending these workshops will give your child focused practice. Get your child exam-ready to maximise their scores in Paper 1 and Paper 2 of the PSLE papers.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does this PSLE Critical Analysis Workshops differ from the June Holiday PSLE Intensive Revision workshop?
The PSLE Critical Analysis workshop has a timed practice component. We believe that this is important as students get to practice being focused for a set period of time and be able to manage their time effectively. Time management is a key factor in managing exam anxiety and in students' ability to build on their strengths.
What is the duration of the group performance review and what will be covered?
The group performance review is a 2 hour session when students participate in guided Critical Analysis of the paper they have just attempted. The purpose of this session is to get students to think about their answers and evaluate them. These higher-order skills are crucial not just for the PSLE but for the rest of their lives.
