Powerful Chinese tuition success stories

From D7 to Distinction in Oral, e-Oral practice was the key.

Si Ying (2022 Inspire alumna) always felt that she was strong in Chinese, however she was discouraged that she was unable to perform well for her Higher Chinese exams in school, obtaining only D7 for Higher Chinese in Secondary 3. She came to Inspire, and after merely 9 months of coaching, she was able to achieve A1 for O Level Chinese and a distinction in Oral. She practised a lot for the important e-Oral component and the useful, thematic notes provided by her tutor really helped her.

No longer leaving blanks for Comprehension!

Ian (2021, Victoria School) always had a habit of leaving the last three questions for comprehension empty because he could not think of anything to write for these open-ended questions. He was always stumped by such questions as they required real-life examples and not simply quotations from the passage. After identifying this weakness, his teacher consistently guided him through answering such tough questions and he finally found the confidence to start answering them. That really made the difference for him as his grade improved from C6 (Sec 4 Higher Chinese Prelim) to B3 (O Level Higher Chinese).

Successully plugging the gaps for PSLE Composition

Kayla (2023, Tao Nan School) had been struggling to improve her composition. She has tried using common good phrases recommended by her school teachers and guide books, with only some limited success. Her breakthrough came when INSPIRE’s Chinese tutor gently guided her to plug the gaps in her composition so that the narration of the sequence of events is smooth. She learnt how to describe the facial expressions of the various characters as well as their tone of voice. Instead of merely commonly used good phrases, she also learnt more advanced vocabulary. Finally she was able to “show,” and not “tell” the story in a more effective manner. Kayla was able to improve from AL3 (Pri 5 Chinese) to AL1 (PSLE Chinese) and from Pass to Merit for Higher Chinese.
