LevelUp Tuition, a trailblazer in educational innovation, is excited to unveil its QR code study guide as part of its 10th-anniversary festivities. Established by Kydon Tay, LevelUp Tuition has evolved over the past ten years into a premier institution for primary and secondary education, with a particular emphasis on Primary Math and Science.
Every Maths question prepared by LevelUp features a unique QR code that links to a problem-solving video. With a simple scan, students can easily access video solutions, guiding them in solving that specific problem using PSLE heuristics. This resource is available anytime and anywhere. Parents can also watch it to learn how to solve questions using the MOE method, enabling them to teach their children effectively.
It is the first tuition centre in Singapore to use research-proven learning techniques such as spaced repetition, practice testing and active learning in class. "I started LevelUp with a mission to improve how students approach learning. Our methods are grounded in cognitive science, emphasising active learning and continuous testing to help students remember better", shared Kydon.
In addition to the new QR code study guide, the team has created and employed a range of teaching strategies designed to enhance student success. Understanding the shortcomings of traditional memorization techniques, LevelUp Tuition breaks complex Science concepts into smaller, more manageable parts. They also incorporate ongoing assessments to reinforce students' retention of essential exam-related keywords and phrases.
A prime example of this method is the Primary Science Mastery Programme at the tuition centre, which aims to simplify intricate Science concepts for better understanding. Throughout the lessons, students are consistently tested on these simplified segments until they become second nature, preparing them to approach similar exam questions with confidence. Moreover, the program includes video lessons as revision tools, allowing students who miss classes to easily catch up on missed content.
At LevelUp, each class begins with a test designed to reinforce students' learning and identify areas where their understanding might be weak. Tutors use these assessments to tailor their lessons, focusing on topics that need improvement to boost students' academic performance. Parents receive weekly reports detailing their children's test results, topics covered, and any significant observations, such as challenging behavior or specific areas needing attention. This transparent communication fosters collaboration between educators and parents, working together to help students succeed.
