Challenges Faced By Secondary 3 IP Students
Adjustment To The Upper Secondary IP Syllabus
In IP, it is insufficient to merely learn the textbook content taught in classes. This is especially true for Upper Secondary subjects, which place heavy emphasis on Skills Mastery. Students are also required to have a strong mastery of Critical Thinking Skills, as well as staying on top of Current Affairs and Global Events.
That is why MindFlex recommends that you engage a Top Sec 3 IP Tutor for your child. This way, Sec 3 IP students will receive additional support in the form of additional resources and materials, as well as 1-1 guidance on a weekly basis.
Poor Examination Skills and Lack of Time Management Strategies
Oftentimes, many Sec 3 IP students may study hard for their various internal assessments and tests, but end up scoring poor results.This is usually a result of a lack of time management strategies as well as poor examination performance. This is a pity, as it means that the work that these students put in does not translate into good results.
Therefore, MindFlex recommends that Sec 3 IP students complete their revision and practice papers under timed conditions and in a simulated examination environment, so as to ensure that they are able to perform in their actual IP examinations. Moreover, our Top Sec 3 IP Tutors are able to impart important Time Management skills and strategies to ensure that Sec 3 IP students are able to complete their examination papers on time.
Increase in Distractions
As children advance up to Sec 3 IP, they could be facing more distractions from their academics. For instance, they could be beginning to step up in terms of leadership in their school’s Co-Curricular Activities (CCA). While serving as a source of holistic education, these CCA responsibilities take up a significant portion of your child’s after-school hours, leaving less time for revision.
Engaging a Top Sec 3 IP Tutor could be helpful to maximise your child’s after-school time. The tutor will be able to help your child to focus on their schoolwork after school, and provide guidance and support as your child’s schedule gets more hectic.
Difficulty Speaking Up in Class
In the IP Curriculum, Sec 3 IP students are encouraged to speak up and ask questions, which shapes them into Critical Thinkers. For many Sec 3 IP Students, this can prove to be a challenge, as they are not used to the high level of participation that is expected of them in IP lessons.
Here at MindFlex, we believe that a Top Sec 3 IP Tutor will be able to help students ease into this new style of curriculum. By slowly building their confidence over time, Sec 3 IP Students will be able to gain the confidence to speak up in class.
Why You Should Engage A Secondary 3 IP Tutor
1. Learning Real-World Skills As A Global Citizen
Sec 3 IP Students are expected to become global citizens and to develop holistically. As such, the IP Curriculum involves Holistic Thinking, and also encourages students to exercise Independent and Critical Thinking as a Global Citizen. This can be rather challenging for students who are not used to such an education.
Here at MindFlex, our Top Sec 3 IP Tutors have extensive experience teaching IP students from different schools. As such, they are able to develop students into global citizens with helpful skill sets including critical thinking and problem solving.
2. Making Full Use Of After-School Time
In Singapore, many Sec 3 IP students have extremely packed timetables due to their supplementary lessons that take place after curriculum hours, as well as their Co-Curricular Activities (CCA). Moreover, many Sec 3 IP Tutors will be beginning to take on more responsibilities in their CCAs, resulting in a heavier workload. As such, students may be too drained and exhausted to focus properly on their schoolwork and revision after their curriculum hours.
That is why MindFlex recommends engaging a Top Sec 3 IP Tutor to help your child make proper use of their after-school hours. The extra lessons every week will definitely be spent fruitfully clarifying doubts and revising content.
3. Aiding Students in Clarifying Doubts
Some Sec 3 IP Students might not be willing to clarify any doubts with their teachers, letting them pile up – which will be detrimental to their learning process. This could be due to students being too scared to approach their Sec 3 IP Teachers for help in school.
MindFlex’s Top Sec 3 IP Tutors are known to have years of experience in teaching IP students and preparing them for the Sec 3 IP Examinations. Tutors will work on the student’s weak areas and provide them with more practice so that they can master it before they sit for their Sec 3 IP Examinations.
4. Provision of Additional Revision Resources
It can be rather difficult for students or parents to source for Sec 3 IP resources on their own. These resources could include revision summary notes and additional practice papers, and are absolutely crucial to consolidate students’ learning.
Engaging an IP Home Tutor through MindFlex will provide students access to learning materials such as summary sheets or notes that will definitely aid Sec 3 IP students when they are revising for their examinations. Through this, students can thus spend more time focusing on the application of the various concepts in their questions, rather than memorising information and concepts from their notes or textbooks.
What To Look For in A Secondary 3 IP Tutor
Experience Teaching Secondary 3 IP Students
The Sec 3 IP Syllabus is highly rigorous and demanding for many students. As such, it is very important to select a Sec 3 IP Tutor that has a lot of experience in teaching Sec 3 IP Students so that you can make sure that the tutor is well-versed with the content and examination practices of the IP school syllabus.
By selecting a tutor with prior experience with teaching Sec 3 IP students, you will be rest assured that they will be able to help guide and support your child as he/she goes through the highly demanding curriculum and syllabus.
Ability To Provide Additional Resources
At Sec 3 IP level, it is probably difficult to find reliable and recent resources for your child. Moreover, the IP being a less commonly-taken route, there is likely to be even fewer resources available online. Hence, by choosing a Secondary 3 IP Tutor that is able to provide additional resources, you can save time on hunting for resources!
The ability to provide additional resources also means that the tutor has spent time and effort curating these resources – an important indication of their commitment and dedication to teaching Sec 3 IP Tuition. Hence, when searching for a Sec 3 IP Tutor, it would be great to look out for tutors who are able to provide their own self-collated resources.
Patience in Teaching
It is no easy feat to teach Sec 3 IP Tuition, as tutors have to struggle to get their attention as well as to get them to listen and pay attention. This is especially so since many Sec 3 IP Students will be rather distracted with their CCAs and other commitments. Hence, it is important to engage a Sec 3 IP Tutor that is patient enough to continuously engage them.
The patience of the tutor may prove to be difficult to judge immediately. As such, it might be useful to request for a trial lesson, and through the trial lesson, you may then sit in and observe how the Sec 3 IP Tutor handles the child during the entirety of the lesson.
Commitment
It is of the utmost importance to select a Sec 3 IP Tutor that is highly committed, both to teaching and to your child’s schedule. When you engage a dedicated and highly committed tutor, you can be more assured of their dedication to teaching your child. This will also make you more confident that your child does well under the tutor’s guidance.
Moreover, if you are intending for your child to be taught by the Tutor on a long-term basis, it will definitely be beneficial to check with them to see if they are willing to follow up teaching the student as they progress in school, up to the A Levels or IBDP.
