“One Who Conquers Oneself”

PS: Drop me a comment on how you find this chemistry blog-site.

Time is 1.32am in the morning, and i just came back home from the 5 days Intensive Program in Singapore, Expo. Tired now, but rallying to go for Day 2 of the program.

During the seminar, many people ask me how difference is my Chemistry Coaching different from the mainstream teaching in Secondary Schools by their own MOE (Ministry of Education) teachers.

You know what is my answer?? Totally Different! In fact, i told them that i am NOT a teacher from MOE. And my coaching is different to theirs in the following ways (in points):

1. My coaching method is NEVER one-way (as in Sec Schs), but instead it involves lots lots lots of participation – cos it has been proven to be effective

2. I dont just teach and they listen there. Instead i coach them to find their own answer, own analogies, own examples

3. I coach them how to relate abstract Chemistry Theories to everyday life occurences, by giving lots lots lots of life examples and analogies.

4. I also coach them how to use story-telling in order to allow them to relate better on the chemical equations.

5. I emphasized lots lots lots on throwing away wrong concepts and installing the new, correct concepts in their learning blueprint

6. I also emphasized lots of motivation and personal consultative talks in order to engage them to like me as a person, so that i can communicate my Chemistry Knowledge to them more efficiently and effectively.

7. In 5 days of Intensive Bootcamp (i.e. 40hrs of Intensive Coaching), i managed to complete 70-80% of the current GCE O Level Chemistry Syllabus, in which schools need one and half years to teach the students –> and my method through accelerated learning techniques allow them to retain the knowledge in a longer, funnier and simple ways.

So that is my difference from MOE teachers. For aspiring Coach or Tutors that want to be different from others, i will be starting a “Train The Trainer” Intensive Course for you!! Isn’t it cool! I am a person who likes to share my knowledge, and i promise that you will be blown away with the strategies that i am using at the moment. You will be surprised how Chemistry Coaching can be So Fun, So Fast and So Effective.

Alright, time for me to catch some sleep, and be really focussed in my Day 2 of training.

Many of the local students would have gotten their Mid-Year Examination results or are getting it soon. Some would be feeling ecstatic while others will be asking themselves if they have put in enough efforts in preparing for that examinations.

For those that did very well, i would like to congratulate you and do Keep Up The Good Work! But always remember not to get complacent with this Mid-Year results and neglect your preparation for upcoming Prelims and GCE O Levels Examinations. Too often, we have seen top scorers for Mid-Year Exams fumble in the more important major exams like Prelims and GCE O Levels – all due to the simple word ‘complacency’

For those that did not do well for their Mid-Year Examinations (especially Chemistry), have you asked yourself what’s the reason for you not doing well? Is it because that you have not put in enough effort for your revision, or is it due to the fact that you are trying to memorize all the words in the Chemistry Textbooks without knowing the concepts? If it is the latter, then i would say it is time to flag this up and find help immediately, be it extra sessions with your school teachers, group study with peers/friends or get a good Chemistry Tutor or Coach. It is not too late to realize it now as you still have time to brush up your Chemistry Concepts. Do not wait till the eleventh hour before your Prelims Examination, to regret not taking the necessary actions earlier

Several of you will be feeling bad and think you are a “failure” – especially for those students that put in long hours to revise “thoroughly” but just dont seems to score the grades in Chemistry you desire. I just want to let you know that there is no such thing as “failure”.

People fails many times in their lives. Important thing is to know how to get up and try it over again, but each time, using a different strategy, a different approach. I would like to share with you a photo that i have taken from one of my student’s studyroom (with her permission of course). I find it truly Inspirational and i wish to share with you!
