English
English has always been the key medium of instruction in our education system. Having a good start in English language acquisition is paramount to academic success in school. Praxis Academia focuses on establishing the foundation of English language in our children from pre-primary via primary to secondary school levels. Our programme covers:
-
Phonics & Phonological Rules (Phonology);
-
Word formation (Morphology and Orthography);
-
Vocabulary (Semantics);
-
Grammatical Rules and Sentence Construction (Syntax); and
-
Use of English language (Pragmatics).
​
These five key components are introduced in the context of English children’s literature in order to promote and appreciate reading (including reading and listening comprehension as well as oral expression) and writing (including spelling, handwriting and free expression) because at Praxis Academia, we believe that “reading makes a man; writing, an exact man.” Both language and literacy skills are taught to our student to help them develop a strong linguistic foundation. Our English tutors are TESL/TESOL-qualified and have taught in schools before.
Mathematics
Praxis Academia keeps tab on the latest Ministry of Education (MOE) Mathematics syllabus for Primary Schools, Secondary Schools and Junior Colleges. Praxis Academia does not only prepare our students to be exam-ready, but also helps to develop the essential problem-solving skills (heuristics) for the students to tackle problems in the context of the real world. This is achievable through the following elements:
​
-
Maximum engagement with experienced and well-trained Math tutors;
-
Timely practice of carefully developed Mathematics worksheets;
-
Early exposure to top school papers and examination type of Mathematics questions; and
-
Training the analytical mind with our unique LMHots framework.
Science
Science courses can be inherently difficult, even for students who are academically well-equipped. The rigorous content and amount of information that a student is responsible to know and apply can be daunting. As such, Praxis Academia Science’s philosophy is a radical departure from traditional uni-directional rote learning where our tutors engage students to understand the scientific concepts instead of memorizing them without understanding. This will help students in dealing with the increasing novelty questions in the National Examinations. Our experienced tutors will scaffold students’ learning, break the content down into small manageable chucks and guide students to develop a good discipline to review their learning after each lesson. Praxis Academia aims to assist students to achieve their academic excellence in all the topics covered in the national science curriculum.
