Wake up at 8.30am.Giving tuition for Cheng Siang at 9am.Eat my breakfast then go liao. After tuition go home for lunch.. Suppose to give tuition for ZhiYong at 4pm..But then his mum call me telling me he got dengue fever. Oh .I was quite shocked. She told me her neighbour also kena.Ops dengue fever is always a problem for people in the East. My father got that before. I just tell her to help me pass the msg to Zhiyong to take care..

I sit down and see my sister study in the living room. I was thinking why not give her tuition …I think she need help. She has difficulty coping with the new syllabus. I think she very capable liao..Taking 9 subjects including MEP and Biology..Frankly speaking I think she is the smartest among us. She learns things real fast..Besides her studies ,she also taking Ballet and Piano course. I wonder how she do it..Although she did not do well for her Sec 3 common test. I think she has not quite get used to the O level style. I think I will trained her to be ready for them…hehe…

I just asked her..She need me to help her in her studies. I think for most kids their ans will be no.Cos if u say yes..that would mean they gt to study and do HW. I want to ask her this qns cos I think only if she want to help herself ..then I am able to help her..She say she need help in physics and chemistry..I like her answer and frankness. This show that she knows her weakness and she is willingly to ask help from me..I then tell her no problem..then I will start tuition 3 times a week ..it will start after lunch break..My focus will be on physics and chemistry..But she can ask me anything if she want to ask..but of cos not music and bio…

So I teach her physics for today tuition. I made her do the ten year series..for chapter1 and chapter 2..I notice she think studying is memorising..I tell her must change method of studying..must understand…I want to be critical but not exam smart..So everytime I will ask some qns that is not inside the book which I think is quite unique..like what ifs? So she will think more.. time flies ..it about 430pm..I give her some phy hw to finish up..while I packed up to go swimming..

I made my way to NUS for swimming training..I was kind of early..Read some of theory stuff for the BM test. Finally most of them come liao..I not going in to competition training which is the super tough one..Cos I have to practise the components for the BM test..Like waterworks,CPR,theory..only after I pass my BM test I can join back the competition training..
