Primary Science Tuition in Singapore
Our LK Academy's Confidence for Primary Science tuition in Singapore builds curiosity, decision-making and understanding in the subject. These are some of the EQ skills we highly inculcate into your students in our primary science tuition.
Why We Focus on Confidence in Our Primary Science Tuition
Why should we focus on Confidence in our Primary Science Tuition in Singapore? Confidence can be seen in the student’s belief in his ability to succeed. Thus, putting confidence as the foundation of our Primary Science Tuition will help the students learn effectively. Improving the ability comes with being prepared.
At LK Academy, we believe that confidence is needed in both the spoken as well as written components of the exam and it is prevalent in our everyday lives.
Lessons in our Primary Science tuition are aligned with MOE syllabus for mainstream schools. Segments of the Science paper are planned such that the components are executed in our classes in preparation for school assessments.

About Our Primary Science Tuition
At LK Academy, we understand and identify the difficulties our students face when a new subject is added. With curiosity, students become more aware of their environment, it is our main consideration for our Primary Science Tuition in Singapore. They learn how to systematically group objects, question how things work and more. With both visual and kinesthetic teaching approaches incorporated in our primary science tuition, we teach our students how to overcome the struggles faced when applying and understanding concepts.
Students may overlook the importance of using the correct scientific terms when answering open-ended questions or even feel overwhelmed by an exam setting and we teach them to overcome this problem in our primary science tuition.
Our Confidence for Primary Science tuition programme will educate students how to tackle open-ended questions and to support their answers with the accurate scientific terms to score. In addition, mindfulness, stress tolerance and time management will be focused through mock exam settings.

Methodology
In our Primary Science tuition, students will be guided to identify and apply science vocabulary accurately in their assessments. Scientific skills such as observation, classification, inference, analysis and evaluation will be honed. This will encourage students to think analytically and critically. Through practice, they will be able to connect questions and methods. This in turn leads students to identify keywords and answer questions in scientific terms. The hands-on approach in our Science tuition allows experiential learning to take place further deepening their understanding of scientific concepts. Students will be able to develop their answers to support scientifically and expand their knowledge of scientific rules. With LK Academy's exam settings for the Primary Science tuition, they will be able to manage time effectively and develop stress tolerance. This allows them to build confidence and foster a sense of responsibility leading to motivated and active learners.
