PSLE represents a singular opportunity – a chance for students to excel and secure placement in their desired schools. With just one shot at success, selecting the right oral programme for the final lap becomes imperative. Given that the English and Chinese oral components carry significant weight in overall grades, it’s essential to alleviate any mounting anxiety.
Enter the PSLE Oral Brilliance Programme, meticulously pioneered this year to guide your child through the PSLE Oral journey until the Prelims. Developed by curriculum specialists from Writers Studio, our oral programme offers targeted practices on challenging topics. Drawing from our experience with MOE oral examinations, we ensure thorough preparation for English oral assessments – geared for improved scores so long as your child cooperates.

✔ Designed for Success
The PSLE English and Chinese oral examination have different criteria for success. Our experienced teachers identify and address these criterions, adopting a precise skill-based approach tailored to the unique success criteria of each language.
✔ Mock Your Way to Oral Brilliance
Simulated mock exams with grading and and in-house techniques in this programme help all students adhere to stringent performance expectations while passive students are set to score without letting their reticence deter them. We cultivate confidence and equip all students with skills needed to perform. Whether your child is naturally vocal or reserved, our committed guidance will ensure they not only meet but exceed performance expectations. All training will be given plenty of care and attention to detail. We will keep you closely informed of your child’s progress. Parent-teacher meetings will be held in June so you can approach our teachers for any timely intervention to ensure PSLE success.

Since our centre’s inception, we have accurately spotted PSLE oral questions every year without fail. Knowing that Stimulus-based Conversations are hard to score, we focus mainly on this component.

Our oral lessons are high impact, with intensive hands-on and constructive feedback.
