Use this PSLE Chinese Oral guide for Your PSLE Chinese Oral examination and see your results improved!

 This book is the best oral practice book for PSLE Chinese and its written with the study of carefully written scripts in mind. Those scripts help students get used to the vocabulary of the topic and some phrases used for answering questions in the topic. Its not for students are not willing to study the scripts a lot of times until they get used to saying those scripts like second nature.

*I cannot promise you any one of the topics will be tested but the skills you buildup practicing the scripts will help you answer all kinds of questions in the PSLE Chinese Oral examinations.

*why use compo phrases like 风和日丽? because those phrases are part of Chinese grammar and they signal to examiners that this student has good knowledge of vocabulary and phrases.

My plan for pupils to take PSLE Chinese and pass it, is very simple.

 My plan for pupils to take PSLE Chinese and pass it, is very simple.

1, study 3-5 words daily and get q1-25 beyond 44/50 marks.

2, study one composition a week and write a compo a week till compo is 32/40.

3, Study 1 topic a week and familiarize with the terms used in oral examinations and the 3 common questions asked. Then study the answer and answering those questions like the back of your hand.

4, do one comprehension a week until your can read the passage and understand the passage easily so that you know how to answer the three kinds of comprehension questions effectively.

If your child has weak foundation aka cannot read or recognise most chinese words in the textbook, then NOW is the best time to help them up their results for CHinese in 6 months time.

 If your child has weak foundation aka cannot read or recognise most chinese words in the textbook, then NOW is the best time to help them up their results for CHinese in 6 months time.

Step 1: study the textbook texts and read ONE sentence aloud daily and study 3-5 words (识写字、识读字) daily. write down all the words learnt in a notebook everyday. (parents can check notebook weekly).

Do the above daily for at least 3 months. every day 30 minutes.

Step 2 study the words again and construct a sentence per word on your notebook (Do 3-5 sentences a day)

read textbook and check with teacher the pronounication (email/sms audio) and rectify any mistake that day. rerecord and listen to the correct ones.

continue until you can read the whole text without stops and all pronunciation is right.

This may take at least 2 months of hard work.

I can assure you before step 2 Ended most of you would have given up or on the way to giving up, SO you need to be determined and have a strong will to survive till now, congrats to you for now.

 How to build a strong foundation for your child's Chinese language and score in PSLE?
Short version

1, Study p5 word list chapter by chapter. Understand every word and learnt to build sentences with those words.

2, After you finished 5A and 5B, find SA1 paper 2 from various schools and use the q1 to q25 to test your child. Only by getting a 50/50 with 80% of school paper 2.

3, Continue to study words from p6a and 6pB wordlist. Use prelim paper 2 from various schools q1 to q25 to test your child. only when you can score 50/50 then continue with p5a and p5b again.

WHY? because after 3 month most children will FORGET so you need to revise.

1 month before PSLE Chinese, drill with past year psle papers.

Testimonial

"Yes, it’s possible to pass PSLE Chinese.
Mine always hovering at AL7, and scores were very close to passing.
We drilled on paper 2 vocabulary section, for Compo, memorise & practice some introduction & conclusions, content follow closely to the helping words given, Oral, just converse more in Chinese, LC, we bought and practice external book( This had significant improvement).
Managed to get AL6 for PSLE.
Hope these tips help!"
( My child’s eyes lit up as she thought she can never pass CL but she finally did! ) 😍
