    2024 Pitaya September Prelim Paper Zoom Class

    Hi P6 parents! Have you made any plans for the PSLE revision this September? With 1 week of "free time" away from school, September holiday is a crucial week for P6 to have an intense revision before the approaching D-day! 


    Make full use of this holiday to catch up with the knowledge gap and be prepared for the big milestone that we have all been working hard towards.


    Pitaya will be conducting Zoom classes for 2024 Prelim Papers for all 4 subjects, 6 papers each.


    J had attended the last round of prelim paper revision by Pitaya in June and I really appreciate that the holiday was not wasted away. Comparing attending this revision class and doing the papers herself at home and me marking using the unreliable answer sheets, I find it more productive and effective to do the prelim papers this way, with teachers' guidance and can clarify any doubts on the spot.


    Check out the offer and timetable below! I find the fees absolutely worth it and even better with discounts if you sign more than 1 subject!


    If you are keen to find out more, feel free to contact their friendly customer service for more information.


    ===========


    ‼️ Attention 2024 PSLE Students‼️


    Which subjects does your child want to improve?


    🇮🇩September Holiday 2024 Key School Prelim papers Class - Discounted Registration!


    Each subject covers 6 sets of 2024 key school prelim papers



    Only SGD 180/subject:

    - 10% off for 2 subjects

    - 15% off for 3 subjects

    - 20% off for 4 subjects

    [Review] Vitamin M Let's Score! PSLE Chinese Listening Comprehension Practice

     



    Newly released Vitamin M PSLE Chinese Listening Comprehension Practice.

    This package consists of 5 practices, each practice consists of 7 passages and 10 questions.  First 2 sets are thoughtfully broken down into smaller parts for practice, and 3 sets designed like an actual exam.

    Suitable for P5 & P6 students.

    The practices are arranged in the order of difficulty. I have tried all the questions myself and find some questions really tricky. Practice 5 is the hardest and you really have to listen and consider each option carefully. I appreciate how the questions are designed and believe with more practice, students can improve on the listening skills and get the difficult questions right.

    It is priced reasonably at $15 so it's definitely worth every cent!

    Here's a sample you can listen to get a feel of it.


    Also, remember to check out their best selling PSLE Chinese Video Oral Practice -- review here.

    Price is $38, and you get to enjoy additional $5 OFF if you use this promo code SGPSCH5

    2024 Pitaya June Prelim Paper Zoom Class



    Registration for the Prelim Papers Zoom Class in June‼

    Subjects: Science, English, Chinese

    10 lessons per subject, 10 Prelim papers


    ✔ Video playback is available

    ✔ Sign up and get a set of Free 2022&2023 Prelim paper


    I have signed J up for the Pitaya prelim zoom classes for her PSLE revision. 😍  I think it's really beneficial to have teacher to go through prelim papers. 


    The zoom is conducted by very experienced teachers and I think the fee is really reasonable. I had thought of just letting J do the papers herself but sometimes we lack the discipline to do them. I'm worried we may not achieve anything by the end of June 🤣


    Having a live zoom class will ensure that she actually sits down and be guided through the papers. I'm so looking forward to the lessons.


    If you are interested, can whatsapp Pitaya at or sign up via their website


    Here's the schedule for the June Zoom class

    Secondary School Open House 2024 April/May 2024



    INFORMATION ACCURATE AS AT 16 May 2024



    Some secondary schools are having open house in April-May. These open house are mainly for students who are considering to apply via DSA - but anyone can attend. I would suggest parents bring your kids to the open house this round if you are interested in the school, because some of the schools will only conduct onsite open house once, and they do e-open house during November/December. 


    There will be another round of secondary school open house in November-December by many more schools.


    Please check back at later dates as I will continue to monitor and update if there is any new information.

    Pitaya P5 P6 Math and Science Online Course!!

    TL;DR = Scroll to the bottom. I have a very special discount code to share for P5 and P6 parents!! But I still suggest you read through. 😁


    I really love Pitaya! Not the fruit, but pitaya.com.sg


    If I were to use a word to describe them, it has got to be GENEROUS.


    Where can you find a online top schools test paper platform for FREE, with so many other features like AI-powered question bank, wrong questions collection, leaderboard (kids favourite), REDEMPTION (another kids favourite).   TOTALLY FREE! 😱


    You can read more about my previous post on Pitaya's free online top schools test paper platform here.


    Other than the features mentioned above, they also provide many free useful downloads under their "Resources" section, and they are updating this section frequently with more freebies.




    And that's not all!


    They also provide paid LIVE zoom Science class for 2024 P6, past year English, Math, Science prelim paper classes, and pre-recorded P5 and P6 Math and Science course!


    My daughter will be P6 in 2024, and we have started watching the pre-recorded course for P6 Math and Science during this holiday. 


    Science is taught by Teacher Elicia. Teacher Elicia specializes in teaching primary mainstream science and GEP science for 12 years and she used to be the Academic Director at The Learning Lab for 3 years. She explains the concepts clearly and shows interesting videos and even do some experiments during the lessons.


    Math is taught by Teacher Dicky. My daughter is familiar with teacher Dicky because she used to attend his live lessons some time back. Teacher Dicky is a very experienced teacher, he is very patient and detailed when teaching. He was the Chief Presiding Examiner (CPE) for PSLE for more than 10 years and the Assistant Supervisor for Marking (ASM) of Mathematics (6 years) and Foundation Mathematics (1 year).


    My daughter enjoys watching the lessons because each topic is divided into a few short lessons so that she doesn't feel overwhelmed by the new information.


    Side track: I recently bought a portable projector just so she can watch the Pitaya lessons in her room, projected onto the wall like watching movie 😂 She's enjoying the novelty LOL.


    Another thing that keeps her wanting to watch more is that the reward for watching each lesson is 100 points! (Yay to toys redemption!) She really love seeing her points going up and climbing the leaderboard. 😂


    If you are keen to experience the lessons, you can go straight to the Pitaya Class page and there are some free lessons to watch. 


    For Science


    Overview tab: Introduction of the course and teacher


    Lessons tab: some free lessons you can watch to have a feel of the course.


    Similarly,
    For Math


    Overview tab: Introduction of the course and teacher


    Lessons tab: some free lessons you can watch to have a feel of the course.



    In the course page, there are links for the lessons, duration of each lesson, "Download", and "Practice".


    Each topic is divided into short digestible lessons so that students will not get tired or bored watching.





    Click on the "Download" and you will get the pdf of the tutorial for the class. 

    "Practice" provides more questions to practice for the topic.




    One thing I like about the video lesson is that at times, the question will pop up for student to answer. This creates more engagement during the lesson.



    Same goes for Math course





    For your convenience, here are videos of Teacher Elicia and Teacher Dicky going through questions, which Pitaya has shared on Youtube. 







    If you are keen to sign up, here's the exciting news!!
    Pitaya is generously offering super special discount of $120, YES $120 OFF for sgprimaryschool.com readers!


    The usual price for 1 course is $599, but you can sign up for the course and get a discount of $120 by using our discount code! That's only $479 for the ENTIRE COURSE, covering all topics of the level! 😍😍😍
