The Primary 4 to 6 Science themes — Diversity, Cycles, Systems, Interactions, Energy — and the skills of explaining and investigating. The official syllabus and examination information are linked in the FAQ below.
The methods we teach with — applied across the term, calibrated to where each student needs them most.
Some difficulties come up again and again in Primary Science. Here is how we work on them.
Classic PSLE question: "Why does the shadow on the wall grow larger when the lamp is moved closer to the toy?" Many students answer with what happens ("the shadow grows larger") and stop there. The explanation answers why: light travels in straight lines (claim); when the lamp moves closer, the angle at which the light spreads past the toy widens (evidence); a wider spread of blocked light hits the wall over a larger area, producing a larger shadow (reasoning). A three-line structure and two clean diagrams: the observation identified, the relevant science stated, and the two connected.
No surprises. The structure is the same week to week — students settle in fast. The timeline below is a 90-minute P4 / P5 lesson; P6 / PSLE Science runs 2 hours, with the extra time going into open-ended practice under timing.
"Genie Education Hub is easily the best tuition centre in the west. Teacher Michelle is super professional and outstanding in her teaching. For the past 2 years I’ve enjoyed her class — she engages the class with timed practices and conversations. She is very patient and passionate in teaching."

Each term covers 8 weekly lessons — we run 8-week cycles rather than following the 10-week MOE school terms. Missed lessons are credited into the next term — credit applies for public holidays, school holidays, official school activities, and absences with a medical certificate.
