🤚🏻 Don’t Go To The Examination Hall Without This Strategy
Although Matter is a topic that was taught at a Primary 4 level, many parents are often puzzled as to why their Primary 5 or Primary 6 child continues to struggle with this topic.
Shouldn’t the topic of Matter be easy?
Well, this topic was easy when it was first introduced in Primary 4 as students were tested on very basic concepts, such as the properties of matter and how to measure mass & volume.
However, when Matter is tested at Primary 5 or 6, questions get more interesting and challenging when students are expected to interpret and analyse an array of questions involving the applications of Matter.
Many students tend to answer these ‘Matter’ questions incorrectly because they do not have the exposure to the different question types and they are clueless on how to go about answering them accurately.
Instead of leaving their performance to guesswork, we have devised a set of proven thought processes and answering techniques to tackle these questions effectively.
Having a systematic approach to answer these questions can save your child precious time and the agony of coming up with a half-baked answer.
Although Matter is often not heavily tested during the PSLE Science examinations, it is important NOT to neglect this topic as it will make a difference between getting an ‘A’ or an ‘A*’ if your child’s fundamentals concepts in Matter are weak.
Here’s The Thing.
Since our students attended the Matter Techniques™ Masterclasses, they have been using these answering techniques effectively in their primary school examination papers and even the PSLE Science paper.
If these answering techniques work well for our students, we are sure it will work for your child as well.

Structured Answering Techniques!
“My child had challenges answering open-ended questions.
The Matter Techniques Masterclas provided structured answering techniques and she gained a little more confidence in answering the OEQs and understands more on the topic and on how to answer questions.
I would recommend The Pique Lab and hope they can help other students too.”
Cleared Misconceptions!
“My boy commented that the Matter Techniques Masterclass is the most interesting Science programme he has attended and has learnt a lot from it.
Teacher Joanna has cleared some of his misconceptions in this topic and he has also gained insights on how to answer Matter-related questions.
He is very enthusiastic in studying Science now and is more confident when it comes to tackling Matter-related problems.”
Clearly & Systematically Explained!
“According to my daughter, she enjoyed the Matter Techniques Masterclass and the concepts were clearly and systematically explained.
She likes it that there is a step-by-step approach on how she should answer the open-ended questions.
This is the only class she had attended, so we intend to enrol her in the holiday masterclass, so she could have a good revision of the P5 topics.”
If You’re Still On The Fence, Hear Us Out.
Over the past seven years, we’ve seen more than 242 primary school students attend the Matter Techniques™ Masterclass, achieving phenomenal improvements in their understanding of the topic of Matter & more importantly, their results.
We’ve been getting these raving testimonials from happy parents weekly after their kids have benefitted immensely from our help. Click here to see what other parents have been saying about our Matter Techniques™ Masterclass.
In case you’re wondering…
This is NOT one of those enrichment programs where students gain loads of theories and do nothing with them afterwards!
As your child will get to apply whatever they’ve learned directly on school examination questions during the course … by the time your child has completed the course, he/ she will be trained on how to tackle his/ her school homework & school examination papers accurately & efficiently.
Not a month later… or even a week later, but immediately!
During the Matter Techniques™ Masterclass, we’ll be revealing the exact same study strategies used by our top-performing primary school students. These strategies have helped them save hours studying every day and yet allow them to score As & A*s during their school examinations time & time again!
So… if you are looking for:
1) A highly robust methodology to sharpen your child’s Science answering techniques, especially in their open-ended section (… such that he/she no longer loses marks unnecessarily due to missing links, key words or key phrases)
2) An engaging teacher with a strong proven track record with primary school students (>80% As and A*s) (… trust me: teachers make or break the learning experience for students. Set them up with the right teacher & they’ll enjoy the learning process for life)
3) A comprehensive set of notes to tackle experiment-centric questions that high-performing primary school students use to excel in their examinations (… you’d want your child to get his/her hands on these materials & start revising now. The best part: Your child doesn’t have to spend countless hours trying to study, because we’ve distilled the most important parts to take note!)
… then this course may just be perfect for your child.
Now, let’s be real. Is this going to be easy?
There is ALWAYS going to be a bit of discomfort, uncertainty and plenty of hard work when your child is trying to learn and apply our answering structures to tackle examination questions. That is normal & many of our students go through the same process all the time.
Once your child pushes past that discomfort, that’s when you will notice real growth in his/her learning. It will not be a walk in the park, but we have plenty of materials & close guidance to help your child improve his/her answering techniques!
We’ll see your child at the workshop!
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Masterclass?
This is NOT a trial class nor a typical program where you expect 20-30 students crammed in a class, in a bid to do some last-minute rescue work. ...a Masterclass is more like a lesson dedicated towards the strong mastery of a particular skill.
Here’s how it works: Throughout our teaching careers, we have perfected a number of strategies and tactics that are proven to work for our students. More importantly, these strategies are carefully documented in our course material, so these best practices could be taught effectively to new primary school students. We will not hold any back “secret tactics” (unlike traditional kungfu masters) & these strategies would be EXACTLY THE SAME as the ones taught to our high performers.
Please note that our Matter Techniques™ Masterclass is not for everyone. They work best for students who have the will & determination to do well, but are lacking the right strategies to get to the A or A*. Our strategies are all meat and no fluff. If you want lengthy theories, please read the textbook instead.
Our Matter Techniques™ Masterclass is all about taking action and getting results as quickly and easily as possible!
Will there be breaks in between classes?
Yes, we typically offer a 5-10 minutes break for every 1-hour of learning. Your child will get two short breaks during the 3-hour masterclass.
Will my child be getting any materials from this masterclass?
Yes, your child will be receiving a comprehensive set of notes covering the answering techniques for the 10 types of questions on Matter.
On top of that, he/she will be receiving a question booklet containing a curated list of open-ended questions on Matter from primary school examination papers.
As such, your child would have the opportunity to apply the thought processes and answering techniques learnt on these questions immediately.
