A Center With A Different Approach

The Learning Board motivates Secondary 3 students through a change in their mindset and guides them to the A-star level with effective strategies. Every 9 of our 10 students scored A in their exams. But we believe the improvements they have made, not their grades, are those that last. Our 7 years of teaching experience and familiarity with the Singapore education system condense into the following formula:

Programme Benefits

Comprehensive Coverage

The Learning Board’s English Programme for Secondary 3 aims to fine-tune the academic precision and exam readiness through a series of higher order of cognitive thinking activities and key points. At this stage, students will be encouraged to evaluate deeper into concepts, texts and topics discussed in our classes. Contents covered in this series programme:

1. Case study on prominent figure
2. ​Global and current issues
3. Societal inclination and norms
4. Modern science and technology

Skill-centric Activities 

A continuous focus is emphasised on mastering the fundamental examination components of composition, comprehension and summary writing. The classes are tailored to:

1. Prepare students to think, write and converse logically and adequately with the focus on critical and persuasive writing
2. Improve comprehension skills through error identification(linguistics)
3. Sharpen and drill on summary writing skills on paraphrasing rather than restating or rewording

Advanced Topics

Through this journey, students would be exposed to a series of comprehension passages that would ignite their inquisitiveness. Topics in focus would be global issues, social practices, science and technology and a study of the autobiography of prominent figures. The application question is a new component that will be introduced to students. A deeper understanding and practice  of grammar will ensure that students are aware of the importance of fine wording their sentences to tailor to specific situations.
