Does your child struggle with science concepts or have difficulty answering open-ended questions?

See Your Child Shine in Science with The Nuggets Academy

Do they need extra support to excel in their PSLE Science exams?

We hear you. At The Nuggets Academy, we recognise that Science isn’t just about memorising facts. It’s about grasping the “how” and “why” behind concepts and applying them in real-world and exam situations.

That’s where we come in. Leveraging our proven math tuition strategies, we’re not just a top math tuition in Singapore—we’re dedicated to helping your child excel in science.

Our classes are interactive explorations of science in real life that deepen students’ understanding and boosting confidence in exams.

We also keep our class sizes small so each student gets the personalised attention they need from their school teachers to master scientific concepts and succeed.

Why do many primary school students find Science challenging?

complexcity

Complex concepts

Science involves learning abstract concepts that can be difficult for students to grasp, especially when they are just beginning to understand the world around them. These concepts also often involve a lot of unfamiliar words and jargon, which further adds to the confusion.

Poor-Foundation-img

Weak foundation

If students don’t have a strong base in science from the start, each new topic gets harder to understand. It’s like building a house; if the foundation isn’t solid, everything that comes after is shaky. Starting off with gaps in their knowledge can leave students feeling lost as they move forward.

Teaching-Methods-img

Teaching methods that don't suit the student's learning style

Standard teaching methods, like lectures and textbooks, don’t work for every student.

With diverse learning styles, a one-size-fits-all approach can leave many students struggling to connect with and understand science, making the subject feel boring and confusing.

How The Nuggets Academy solves your child's primary SCIENCE challenges

primary science tuition classes

1) Our tutors have 30+ years of combined teaching experience

At The Nuggets Academy, our team of education specialists and qualified teachers boasts more than a decade of experience each, specialising in guiding students from primary to secondary tuition levels.

We truly understand the hurdles your child faces in mastering Science—from basic concepts to experiment handling. Our lessons are crafted to empower students with both conceptual knowledge and practical skills, useful for answering experiment and application-based questions.

Our commitment goes beyond teaching; we aim to nurture a positive relationship with your child, boost their self-esteem, and cultivate a lasting appreciation and love for science.

Furthermore, our track record speaks for itself. We have successfully guided countless primary school students to excel in their exams through our PSLE science tuition classes.

2) Making Science fun with digestible, bite-sized modules

At our primary school Science tuition centre, we understand that learning a subject that you don’t like or have no confidence in is double the struggle.

That’s why our science classes are crafted to be both fun and captivating, broken down into manageable, bite-sized modules. We believe that with perseverance, patience, and the right guidance, every student can excel and even develop a love for science!

Our sessions last 1 hour and 45 minutes, allowing time for detailed explanations, deep understanding, and ample practice.

This no-rush approach ensures that students master fundamental skills, learn critical thinking, and be confident with scientific jargon terms before advancing to more complex concepts.

Ultimately, our bite-sized, step-by-step mastery is at the heart of our success in building students’ confidence and enthusiasm for science.

3) Small class sizes of 6 students for personalised attentiveness

Unlike other science tuition centres, we limit our small group coaching sessions to a 6 student-per-tutor ratio.

We believe that personalised attention is key to effective learning and this setup ensures that every student receives the focused attention they deserve. This also allows our Science tutor to customise learning plans and materials to meet each individual’s unique needs.

We employ a dynamic and rotational teaching approach, keeping every student engaged in their work while our experienced tutors provide close guidance and support.

This method fosters a conducive learning environment where every moment is an opportunity for growth without anyone left waiting for spoon-fed answers.

Teacher Sandra went the extra mile to help my son during the run up to PSLE, and even gave several free lessons at the final hurdle. Would recommend her to any parent as the group fees are very reasonable too.

Highly recommend Teacher Sandra. My daughter (zhiyao) had been with Teacher Sandra since P5. She used to be very inpatient when she did not know how to do the maths questions and give up doing. Teacher Sandra had managed to built up her confidence in maths and will target on those topics that she is weaker. Real thanks to Teacher Sandra for the extra lessons given to my daughter before psle. really help alot.

My daughter joined Math Nuggets for a trial lesson last July. She was comfortable with Teacher Sandra and thus enrolled for the classes regularly.Teacher Sandra was patient and guided her to close her learning gaps quite quickly. I can see my daughter gaining confidence in the subject at the weighted assessment prep this year. She used to dread Math prior but this year she was practicing consistently and felt her own confidence grow. What was once her worst subject has now become her second best subject in her prelims exams.Thank you Teacher Sandra and Math Nuggets for the patient delivery and guiding of my daughter throughout the 1.5 years. Thank you for seeing her strengths and providing clear instructions and explanations for all the work. She has enjoyed the pacing of the lessons and the small group size helped to keep the pace not too dreary and fostered a camaderie that they can all achieve well together!

Math is not my girl’s forte. However she always looks forward to Tr Sandra’s class. She shared that Tr Sandra makes Math easier to digest & she is able to remember her methods well thus applying it during exams. Tr Sandra always renders help whenever possible. She gives constructive feedback & encouragement even to struggling mums like me! Thank you Math Nuggets!

I would highly recommend Math Nuggets! I have been following their YouTube teaching channel for awhile and can't wait for an available vacancy for my son. When my son finally commenced his lessons with Teacher Sandra, I knew he is at the right place. The small class size allows Teacher Sandra to address individual student's weaknesses and reinforce concepts and good habits through more practice. She also helped to build confidence and my son is no longer fearful of word problems! Thank you Teacher Sandra and Math Nuggets!! Truly a dedicated teacher that teaches from her heart and uses methodology that’s easy for my son to understand.

Highly recommend Math Nuggets! The small class size allows the teacher to give enough focus to each student. Teacher Rachel was able to identify the weaknesses for my girl and tried to reinforce the concepts through more practice. She helped to build confidence and my girl is no longer fearful of Math. Thank you Teacher Rachel and Math Nuggets!!

My girl did a trial lesson mid Sept, recommend by a friend. The centre is very cozy and welcoming. My girl enjoyed the trial and requested to continue, so we waited till October availability to begin. She is lucky to meet Teacher Sandra. Her patience, engagement, simplified cum clear methods, serious but gentle way of teaching my girl, has totally change her attitude towards math subject. From reluctant to try or complete on math questions, to now able to complete the few pages of given math homework, it was a surprise for me. She can now try solving the questions before seeking for help. We can see the change right after trial lesson.We signed up weekly lesson from October as well as the math boots camp for 2 days (revision on overall P4 math), hopeful that my daughter year end result could pass. She was nearly fail during mid year exam.We would like to thank the magical Teacher Sandra for guiding her to be more confident in handling maths in such a short period. Within a few lessons, we are glad that not only she pass, she received the year end exam with improvement to 73%, from a 55% during mid year exam. We are so proud of her!You are amazing, Teacher Sandra! Well deserved reputations! Kudos to you!Look forward to more smiling faces towards her journey of PSLE next!
