“My child can do it… but scores keep swinging.”

This is the most common Sec 1 situation in Bukit Timah:

• your child is capable
• they work hard
• but results still fluctuate

This usually isn’t about intelligence. It’s about reliability: they haven’t built stable execution under time and variation yet.

Signs your child is the “unstable” type

• marks swing a lot between papers
• careless mistakes repeat (same pattern)
• slow under timed conditions
• gets correct when guided, but slips alone
• unsure which method to use in word problems

What Bukit Timah Tutor does (upgrade plan)

1) Convert understanding → execution

We train clean, legal working so your child stops losing marks from structure and skipped steps.

2) Fix the type of mistake (not just the topic)

We label recurring errors:

• sign slips
• procedure slips
• method slips
• reading slips
• messy working slips
  Then we target the pattern until it stops repeating.

3) Train variation (the real exam skill)

We practise the same skill across different forms so your child can handle WA phrasing and twists.

4) Build speed safely

Speed is built through fluency + mixed practice + timed mini-sets — without panic drilling.

What parents usually notice in 4 weeks

• marks become less swingy
• fewer repeated careless mistakes
• faster method choice (“I know what to do”)
• calmer timed practice

What to bring

• last 1–2 WAs/tests, or
• list of topics + the common mistakes you keep seeing

If your child is capable but unstable, tuition should not just “teach again”. It should stabilise reliability — so your child becomes consistent.
