Recall what he said: “If I fail, I will try again and again and again. It’s not the end. It all matters on how you going to finish. Are you going to finish strong? You will find the strength to get back.”

In previous post, i have discussed about the role and elements that a good teacher (educator)
“Hi Sean, just want to say a BEEG thank you being an inspiring teacher. Your passion for Chemistry & dedication in teaching are a great motivation & inspiration to your students. You do not choose only the ‘A’ grade students but inspire them to be. Because of your help, Tim (Timothy) improved his Chemistry and was able to spend more time brushing up other subjects. Thanks!”
Mrs Ho, Parent of Timothy Ho, Gan Eng Seng School, C5 (Sec 3) to A2 (O Levels 2009)
I think it is time for us to share our good news about our 2009 batch of Chemistry (Pure Chemistry & Combine Science) & Math (A / E) students.
Winners Education Group has helped another year of students to unleash their potential and produced excellent results with:
• 100% improvements!
• 98% of them have also scored ‘A’s & ‘B’s!
• 97% making improvement of 3 grades or more in Chemistry & A/E-Math!
Updates: Glad to know that
Since the inception of this F-R-E-E Chemistry website few days ago, i have received numerous emails and blog comments by educators from different regions – about the roles of “Teachers” and “Educators”.
Many in Singapore associates Teachers to only NIE-Trained Teachers which applies to Primary, Secondary & Junior College Teachers. Personally, i thought more credit should be given to Kindergarden & Child-Care Teachers and Assistants, Tutors, Coaches, Instructors, Trainers, Polytechnics & Universities’ Lecturers, even parents & siblings. As such, Educators seemed to be a more correct term to used.
I did a quick check with my decade-old dictionary to find the terms stated:
Teacher - person who gives systematic information to (person) or about (subject or skill); enable (person) to do something by instruction
Educator – person who trains or instructs mentally and morally, besides giving information
These days, children (especially this group of teenagers under “Y” Generation) are getting more matured earlier and have a mindset of their own. Giving of information to students and instructing them is no more effective. And thus the role of Educators / Teachers have to emcompass other elements in order to made their teachings more effective, such as:
What do you think?
If you are an educator: Teacher,

How to Design & Deliver Your Presentations using PowerPoints That Sizzles!
I have been presenting for many years (formally and informally), and have gone into coaching for quite awhile. Many people ask me what is the best form of presenting to grab the audience’s attention and to achieve the end results that we aim for.
My answer is: ” Every form of presentation has its own merits and downsides, but all can be used to achieve your final aim. The most important thing is to determine your group audience and the purpose of your presentations. For academic coaching sessions where i want my students to absorb faster and more effectively, i would use Flip-Charts and Whiteboards. But for generating ideas across to the large mass audience where visuals are very important – i will use PowerPoint Presentations.”
We all heard of Winston Churchill and Lincoln Abraham. Both are great Motivational Speakers and Leaders.
As speakers, both practice the three-part rule of classic rhetoric Presentation Formulae:
1. Start with an attention-grabbing introduction. I personally prefer Outrageous Openings.
2. Use the body of your speech to deliver persuasive content. Over here, this is where
Dear Readers and Subscribers,
All of us here at SimpleChemConcepts.com & Winners Education Group (parent company) would like to sincerely wish you and your family “Happy New Year” and a most wonderful festive season! This is that special time of year to reflect on all the things we are so grateful for and also a time to set our goals & inspirations as we enter 2010.
2009 was a massive year for me – both personally and on my Chemistry blog / coaching
As we reflect, we acknowledge all the milestones we have achieved in 2009 and all the amazing support that we have received and had the opportunity to give; as well as the spectacular results achieved together.
Thank you all so very much ~ we are eternally grateful!
Let’s take a look at some of the “Best of SimpleChemConcepts.com 2009 (Academic Year)“:
We’re also very excited about entering the next decade together and are looking forward to continuously offering you our best in
Greetings everyone!
It has been a while (busy with running revision workshops and classes) since i last blog on this chemistry portal – where international community of chemistry students and educators come together to share thoughts on 3 main points:
If you are a Sec 4 / 5 student in Singapore, i hope you are spending time to revise on what you have learned in the past 2-3 years. For Chemistry, many students have this misconceptions and wrong mindset that Chemistry is a “memorising subject” and you can do a last minute revision (i.e. memorising most parts of the chemistry textbook or notes from teachers) before you GCE ‘O’ Level Chemistry Examinations – both Pure Chemistry as well as Combine Science (Chemistry).
This is certainly not true, contrary to the beliefs of many students, fueled by the claims from their friends, peers and seniors – that they should only start revising for their chemistry examinations after their Preliminary Exams (school exams) and when nearer to GCE “O” Level Chemistry papers. Do note you are “digging your own grave”! [sorry if you find my language abit aggressive] I just want to highlight the importance of doing revision immediately NOW! with O Level Chemistry Exams in about 30 days time. I would rather be aggressive and save a few more souls, rather than loosing several of you due to the wrong mindset.
In the next blogposts, i will share with you revision techniques as well as several tricky Chemistry Examination Questions.
PS: if you have been studying very hard for your chemistry, but have yet to score the marks you deserved – it may be due to the fact that your concepts of chemistry are not crystal clear yet i.e. there are misconceptions (and thus mistakes and errors) that prevents you from scoring! The book i wrote last august Up Your Chemistry Grades Now will be the book to address it.
Stay Tuned! =)
