Primary 4 English
About this class
Primary 4 marks the first year of upper primary for our students.
To make it easier on our students to adapt to the rigours of the Primary 4 year, we break grammar down into the basics.
From Comprehension, Synthesis and Transformation, cloze passages and more, we use the English exam components as a base to build up our students’ English, exploring elements of grammar like phrasal verbs, connectors and conjunctions, and more.
We end off the Primary 4 year with a literary module, using a short story to delve deep into relevant conversational topics, composition writing skills, and grammar.
Boost your child’s scholastic development with extra learning resources
If you feel your child needs more help after our hour-long lecture, you can sign them up for our weekly tutorials too. These are conducted in small groups, so your child has personalised guidance from their teachers, all of whom are ex-MOE teachers.
Our weekly live-streamed lessons engage students in a content-rich and interactive learning environment. The meticulously crafted curriculum is designed to give your child ample practice and revision in each topic, question type, and examinable component.
Because we’re committed to helping students, we’re also keeping fees for these weekly tutorials affordable (lectures are included in all tutorial packages).
There are 2 types of Primary 4 classes:
- Regular Classes
- Small-group Class
The regular classes are our usual classes.
The same lessons are taught in our small-group or tutorial class, but class size is capped at four to six students, allowing the teacher to give more attention and focus on each student.
