Our Approach to Teaching English at Elixir Tuition

At Elixir Tuition, we believe every child has the potential to excel in PSLE English with the right tools and guidance. Writing PSLE English compositions, a critical component of Paper 1, is often a stumbling block for many students due to outdated or ineffective frameworks. Our tailored approach focuses on the PSLE English syllabus, transforming these challenges into strengths and empowering students to write confidently and creatively. With expert strategies, we help students master the skills needed to excel in the PSLE scoring system and achieve top AL scores PSLE. Equip your child with the tools to succeed in PSLE English tuition today!

Many students struggle with starting their compositions. They often spend too much time framing the opening scene, losing track of the overall composition or running out of time. This can result in incomplete or off-topic compositions, leaving students frustrated.
 

Our unique framework flips the process by identifying the core of the composition first and working both forward and backward. This ensures students stay on-topic, manage their time effectively, and craft a cohesive story that meets all the requirements of the prompt.
 

Step 1: A Smarter Approach to Composition Writing

A rich vocabulary is essential for excellent writing, yet many children today lack it due to reduced reading and writing habits, often replaced by games and social media. Without a strong vocabulary, it’s challenging for students to express their ideas effectively and score well.
 

We address this by:

Introducing students to common themes in compositions.
Providing curated lists of essential vocabulary tailored to these themes.
Teaching them how to seamlessly incorporate "bombastic" words into their writing for maximum impact.
This approach ensures that students not only learn new words but also understand how to use them appropriately, enhancing their writing without making it feel forced.
 

Step 2: Vocabulary Mastery

Having a solid structure is only part of excelling in PSLE English compositions. To truly stand out, students need to:

  • Be elaborative and detailed in their writing.

  • Visualize scenes and characters using sensory details, objects, tools, and daily experiences.

  • Write naturally and engagingly, avoiding mechanical or forced styles.
     

At Elixir Tuition, we train students to tap into their life experiences and translate them into vivid, imaginative narratives. Our PSLE English tuition program focuses on blending structure with creativity, ensuring compositions align with the PSLE English syllabus. By mastering these techniques, students excel in the PSLE scoring system, achieve higher AL scores PSLE, and produce writing that is both technically sound and compelling to read.
