Economics (HL)
Having economic tuition with Sean helped to better understand the concepts in textbook. Sean was always very patient and helpful, whenever I had questions, he always taught me many useful skills on doing economic paper. After every exam, Sean will go through my mistake and summarise the relevant points for me to take note of. During the revision period, Sean helped me to practice many essays which helped me to improve my writing skills. With the help of tuition and practice, I was able to get grade 7 for my finals.
Saint Joseph's Institution
Chemistry (HL)
After repeatedly failing Chemistry, I decided to join Quintessential. With only 5 months left to the IB examinations, Michael managed to guide me and help me achieve a grade 7 in Chemistry. Micheal dissected questions and helped to explain everything in detail. He helped identify my problems at the root and taught me how to overcome it which is why I went from getting a grade 3 to a grade 7 in just a mere 5 months. Thank You!
ACS Independent
Economics (HL)
Going for economics tuition helped me revise everything that I learnt in school, which was very important for me as I was struggling to find time to do so. I was also able to receive more resources to study as Sean provided very concise notes. The papers we went through very consistently further helped me understand answers I should be providing for my exams. As a result of my tuition, I was able to achieve a grade of 7 for my final IB examination.
ACS (International)
Mathematics (HL)
QE has been very helpful in bringing out the best in me for Mathematics! In fact, I was always very lost in lessons, until I joined the class. Jayden was able to help us understand the requirements and key points of each question and component, by breaking down and approaching them methodically. Apart from letting me have a greater grasp of the subject, it boosted my confidence during the exam, keeping me calm and composed!
ACS Independent
Economics (HL)
Sean is a dedicated teacher who is willing to spend time outside lessons to have consultations with students. His lessons are engaging and useful as I’ve learnt many skills that are not taught in school. Sean ensures we grasp the skills and concepts taught by giving practices and feedback in class, and also encourages us with food.
School Of The Arts
Langlit (HL)
I joined Quintessential as I was having problems writing well which was highly frustrating for me. After a few sessions I was able to write anwsers with more accuracy, using proper techniques, improving along the way and therefore increasing my confidence. I learnt and understood much more than I did before. My marks in my Langlit boosted in school. Thanks to Dawn I was able to achieve a 7 in my IB exams, which I didn’t think was possible before I joined.
Lessons at QE allowed me to thoroughly understand the course content and the economics syllabus requirements, not leaving any doubts before the exam. I would like to thank Mr. Sean Lim for his great class structure, concise notes, exam practices, and tremendous help.
Haru Kim, IGCSE Revision Crash Course, UWC (Dover)After repeatedly failing Chemistry, I decided to join Quintessential. With only 5 months left to the IB examinations, Mike managed to guide me and help me achieve a grade 7 in Chemistry. The class dissected questions and helped to explain everything in detail. Also, Mike identified my problems at the root and taught me how to overcome it which is why I went from getting a grade 3 to a grade 7 in a mere 5 months. Thank you so much Sir!
Naveen Lakshman, IB Revision Crash Course, SJIThe chemistry course at QE was great. I was able to learn the entire term’s topics in a few lessons. It was very helpful in my understanding when the teacher went through the chapters in school. I was also more competent in my answering ability for my assignments and quizzes.
Alex Tian, IGCSE Headstart Programme, ACS(International)Through the IA course, I gained a lot of insights about coursework requirements and writing techniques. I was able to get precise guidance on what edits to make, according to the scoring rubrics. The tutor was very specific with all comments and suggestions, explaining and guiding me along from proposal to my final draft.
Ashley L, IA Coursework Programme, HCISThank you for making even the most boring subjects like English and Economics fun. Will always remember the commitment and extra effort all my tutors put in to help me prepare for exams! The practice sessions and reviews really made a big difference in my revision and I really enjoyed my lessons at QE!
Park Ha Young, IB Headstart Programme, AISI was having difficulty with my Econs EE before I sought help with QE. With Mr Lim’s guidance, I managed to come up with a proper workflow for my EE and get full recommendations on key changes to make. It thoroughly addressed all my uncertainty of how the EE should be written and we were able to rework everything including my appendix. I achieved a 3 for my EE and I highly recommend the course!
Mark Chan, EE Coursework Programme, HCISFrequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
QE has been offering crash courses since 2013, and were featured on The Straits Times for these programmes.
Most students do not strategise when studying for exams; they tend to lack practical skills/answering techniques and instead worry about trying to memorise their notes/textbooks. The aim of our prep courses is do away with memorising and build good understanding by clarifying what kind of questions to expect in exams, what concepts to focus on and how to strategise their preparations, how to tackle key examination questions, how to improve their answering techniques.
Many students only realise what they lack when they begin their own revision. We believe that an intensive course right before the exams will complement their revision and help clarify questions on various key topics and concepts. This is usually done through an analysis of various past questions in a topical manner.
While most students have access to past questions and solutions, we find that a big problem is not in understanding the answers but learning how to arrive at such answers and applying them in other questions. We believe students can improve if we address gaps in application skills; by breaking down and explaining various answers to show “How exactly do we arrive at this answer and apply it elsewhere?” Our intensive courses aim to do this.
We had more than 100 students for our Crash Course last year and we are expecting more this year.
Our courses are conducted individually (1-1) or in a small group seminar style. The tutors dry run each course to make sure the intensive session can cover all chapters and questions.
We aim to add value to students by complementing and supplementing their own revision. Hence the courses are centred on focused topical revision analysing and reviewing different categories of past questions developing a structured approach to answering questions (this is the highlight of our courses) developing answering techniques analysis of common mistakes of students reversed teaching by students (to test their ability to comprehend and apply). Essentially, the course places emphasis on doing away with memorising by providing a concise approach to reviewing the exam syllabus.
These courses are guaranteed to improve students’ understanding in a significant manner. By getting an overview, they are now more sure of specific parts of the syllabus to focus on; it gives them a good way to strategise their revision.
They will also learn various ways the questions could be asked and can better work on their answering techniques and logical reasoning. It teaches them to focus on key components to score. Provided that students study hard revision after the course, their grades will definitely improve in a tangible manner. The best improvements we have seen go from E to A after 1 course and a few regular lessons.
Students are more confident especially as they have just reviewed their entire syllabus. There is also much appreciation of the subject now that they can crystallise key components of it; this allows them to keep up at school and in turn they feel more motivated and driven. By focusing on key questions and applications, our courses can make a seemingly dry subject come alive and many students find it easier in their revisions.
