WHY CHOOSE PTA?
√Exceptional Track Records
Year after year, we have produced exceptional results. Approximately, 95% of our students achieve A or B grade for their examination. Since 1999, we have been making a differences to thousands of students grades and their journey to the UPSR, PT3 and SPM level.
√Comprehensive Notes
All our students receive comprehensive notes for each topic. These highly sought after summarised notes, written exclusively by our PTA tutors for our students, not only help them understand and remember concepts and principles, but also serve as crucial revision material before exams and tests. The notes are designed not only to foster deep understanding, but also to aid the student in revising for exams. These notes are also constantly being reviewed to stay relevant to the changing syllabus.
√Solutions to Past Year Papers
It is important to share with students accurately crafted solution to the past year paper. There are solution books sold in the market but not many follow carefully and pay attention to what the examiners are expecting. Our PTA tutors share with our students (free of charge) carefully worked out solutions of recent papers. The solutions are crafted based on comments made by the examiners. We also share with them how they should present their answers in order to maximize their marks. This is important as often students beat round the bush in their response and lose vital marks for which the examiners are looking to award. The worked solutions we have crafted out are currently not available in the market and it is only for the privilege of our current students.
√ Results-Orientated Teaching Methodology
Our program will equip students with problems-solving skills to tackle both past-year and novel higher order questions. Our PTA tutors will not only go through the solutions to all the practise/ past year papers questions but also highlight the important concepts and methods crucial in writing out clear and concise answers. Common mistakes and pitfalls will be shared so that students would be able to avoid them. Our dedicated teachers will also make themselves available before and after lessons to assist students with their regular homework problems or with any other issues.
√ Conducive classroom environment
All our classrooms are air-conditioned to provide a comfortable environment to enhance our students’ learning experience. Each classroom is also fully equipped with multi-media capabilities to support our teachers’ multi-modal lessons.
√ Small class size
