Home » Primary Chinese Enrichment Class in Singapore
EduGrove offers the best Chinese enrichment class for Primary School students to help them cope with these demands – and ensure that the next stage in their learning journey is both a successful and enjoyable one. Each week’s lesson focuses on a different component of the exam each week: Oral, Composition Writing, Main Paper and Comprehension.
As your child moves onto the upper Primary level, EduGrove prepares your child for their first major examination through the PSLE Preparation programme, where the lesson centers around the PSLE Chinese language examination.
At EduGrove, we offer specialised enrichment classes designed to nurture Primary School students’ Mandarin skills and build a strong foundation for their academic success. Our curriculum is tailored to meet the specific needs of different age groups and learning levels.
We provide Chinese enrichment classes for Primary School students at all levels. Each weekly lesson targets a specific aspect of the Singapore school’s Chinese language exam, including oral and speaking skills, Chinese composition writing, and comprehension.
We use specifically designed games to introduce commonly tested vocabulary and idioms and engage students in role-play to help them put language in context. Through physical interaction with words and phrases, children absorb and retain vocabulary more effectively than with traditional teaching methods typically used in other tuition centres in Singapore. Plus, it’s a lot more enjoyable with drama involved!
Our programme is tailored to prepare students for the PSLE Chinese Language examination. Blending enrichment with essential tuition, it covers all three papers: Paper 1 (写作) Chinese composition writing (20%), Paper 2 (语文应用和阅读理解) language use (45%), and Paper 3 (口试和听力理解) oral and listening skills (35%).
In this PSLE Chinese class, students engage in topic and picture discussions, vocabulary review using past exam papers, and various activities aimed at enhancing creative writing skills. They also learn specific techniques to tackle challenging comprehension questions with confidence.
By enrolling in our enrichment centre, Primary 6 students can have the knowledge and confidence to take on their PSLE Chinese exams and ace them with flying colours. We have an outstanding track record of having at least 70% of our students scoring 75 marks and above in the past years. This is remarkable as most of them joined us with failing grades or zero interest in learning the Chinese Language.
At EduGrove, our composition writing classes ignite Primary school students’ imagination and foster self-expression through engaging creative writing activities. With every session, they develop the skills to craft structured sentences, master idioms, and refine their Chinese script.
Our enrichment centre in Singapore provides lessons tailored to the students’ language level and empowers them to approach their composition exams with confidence and ease.
We believe that guiding your child through composition writing in a Mandarin-rich environment is an excellent way to tackle the challenges of learning Chinese. As such, our interactive enrichment classes foster creativity, language fluency, and critical thinking skills.
Primary school students will learn to express themselves effectively, construct engaging narratives, and develop a deeper appreciation for the nuances of the Chinese language. By enrolling in our classes, your child will not only excel in composition writing but also gain the confidence and skills to communicate effectively in Mandarin.
Circle Time is used to encourage students to converse using the language, often applying many of the keywords previously learnt to express themselves. Through this activity, students not only become more comfortable practising speaking the language, but they are able to hone their presentation and listening skills whilst building their confidence.
New vocabularies are introduced using Active Learning Games as students are coaxed through play to verbalise flash cards while they learn the meaning and pronunciation of the words. Learning through play is not only fun, it is more engaging and makes learning more effective.
Role-Playing and Improvisational Drama are education techniques used to coax students to apply the keywords learnt into their natural dialogues. Students are immersed in unscripted imaginary scenarios that challenge them to think on their feet. Ultimately, it cements important commonly tested keywords into the long-term memory
At the end of it all, students will put all they have learnt into paper practice through Written Exercises. This provides students with ample practice in all sections of the Chinese examination papers and enables them to approach exams calmly and with confidence. Our syllabus is carefully crafted by our former MOE PSLE marker and her team of curriculum writers, aimed to get our students to ace their exams.
Learning the keywords through games helps me to remember them much more easily! I feel that this has helped me get better results. I really enjoy where we sit in a circle and share about our experiences freely and lao shi is able to help us explain ourselves better in Chinese.
Classes at EduGrove are very fun and interactive, and I feel that this helps me remember important keywords better. I really like lao shi, as she helps me to clarify my doubts in a very clear manner and helps me to under- stand difficult terms better. In my recent examinations, I managed to improve from my initial grade of D and got a B grade for the recent Chinese
exams!

These activities encourage active participation, foster creativity, and provide a dynamic environment for students to demonstrate their understanding in real-world contexts.
