The Role of Confidence in Primary English Tuition
At LK Academy, we believe that since confidence permeates all areas of our daily lives, it is essential for both the spoken and written portions of the exam.
The MOE curricula that are mandated by public schools are followed throughout the lessons at our Primary English tuition in Singapore. To assist pupils in preparing for school evaluations, the arithmetic exam is divided into manageable sections that can be completed in class.

Methodology
Through our curriculum for Primary English tuition, we intend for our students to become aware of their own thought processes. It is important to stay objective throughout the assessment process, for instance, in English composition tuition. Through practice exam scenarios in creative writing for primary school, students can learn how to manage their time and develop stress tolerance. With these skills, they are able to ensure analytical thinking in high-pressure environments. With LK Academy's focus on holistic learning, we will inculcate a sense of responsibility within students enabling them to be active learners in and out of the classroom.

How is Creative Writing Incorporated in our English Composition Writing Lessons?
Through our specially designed writing curriculum for the Primary English Tuition, creative writing in a composition is our main focus when it comes to helping students score. Creative writing techniques are introduced at a fundamental level in Primary 1, and a scaffolded approach is applied to expand on creative writing techniques as students progress up to the mid-primary and upper primary.
The focus on creative writing elements such as character development, plot development, conflict resolution and imaginative language is imprinted onto our students through our English composition tuition. This allows our students to add a personal element of flair to their writing assessments.
By using the creative writing techniques learnt in our Primary English Tuition, our students will be able to write compositions with deeper plots, while focusing on the title and pictures given. This mixed together with LK Academy's composition curriculum will enable our young writers to excel and wow their markers in any given situation.
These creative writing techniques will be instilled in our students as they prepare and write their composition writing, whether in LK Academy or for their school examinations.

"LK has truly nurtured my child's interest genuinely to enjoy learning and understanding of the language. My child looks forward to class every week and looks forward to meeting with her teacher. A happy environment with the patient guidance of her teacher really enabled her to benefit academically. Not only that, she has grown in her personal development as well when it comes to having confidence to speak and express her thoughts well.
Her confidence had been slowly built to apply what she has learnt. She knows she can do it for her daily work and exam papers!"
