Regarding the Golden Question

Regarding Miss Loi’s Jφss Sticks Sessions

  • What is a Jφss Sticks Session?

    Following the Chinese saying in the previous question, one must always burn joss sticks regularly to avoid contracting the terrifying LMBFH Syndrome.

    Going beyond the rhetoric, Joss Sticks refers to Miss Loi’s challenging set of exam paper questions and a Jφss Sticks Session is then, quite simply, an intensive Maths tuition class conducted by the Venerable Miss Loi.

  • What’s so special about your Jφss Sticks Sessions, compared to other tuition centres?

    I. AM. MISS. LOI. ‘Nuff said! :twisted:

    While we cannot speak for other tuition centres, each session at The Temple is limited to a maximum of six students only, so as to ensure that each and every single one receives the maximum amount of Miss Loi’s tender loving care and benefit from her legendary teachings.

    Besides, this is most certainly NOT one of those “come-here-and-do-worksheet-while-tutor-relax-and-polish-nail” kind of tuition class. It’s really a hive of activities i.e. teaching, discussions, knowledge imparting, tips sharing, mock tests, scolding, devouring food etc. behind that serene facade of joss sticks smoke!

  • Do you teach PSLE/Sec One/Sec Two/Sec Three/JC/Uni Maths?

    Ah … the mother of all FAQs.

    Strictly speaking Miss Loi has taught them all. However, due to time slots & class size constraints, and a severe manpower crisis (i.e. there’s only one Miss Loi), priority shall always be given to students taking their O-Levels in the current year (especially those with C5 to F9 grades), since they are in the ones in most dire need of Miss Loi’s salvation.

    UPDATE: In order to extend her salvation to the maximum number of students possible, given her unfortunately-packed schedule, Miss Loi has decided that she will ONLY be teaching Secondary School Mathematics in the foreseeable future. Apologies to all PSLE/JC/Uni Maths enquirers and thanks for your kind understanding.
  • Do you do private (one-to-one) home tuition?

    Yes. But Miss Loi’s limited private home tuition slots are usually booked-out quickly by her existing long-term students.

    So unless you have a very flexible schedule (i.e. free from the usual school commitments, CCAs etc.) that allows you to be available at odd timings, you are strongly encouraged to attend her group sessions at Miss Loi’s Temple, where the schedule is better-tailored to fit Singapore’s typical school-going students.

  • Do you have a schedule of all your classes?

    It does vary from time to time but in general,

    • Normal group tuition classes are held over the weekends from Friday afternoons to Sundays.
    • During school holidays and just before major exams like the O-Levels, intensive Mega Jφss Sticks Sessions are usually held daily during the course of the holidays.
    • To avoid clashing with the classes, private one-to-one tuition are normally scheduled on weekdays.

    For more updates, Miss Loi’s latest class schedule can always be found here. Alternately, you can click on the pretty Class Schedule Link at the top of this website!

  • What’s the duration of each session? What is covered in one session?

    Each session is 2 hours, give and take. Normally one chapter from the syllabus will be covered in a session.

  • Will I be able to fit in with the rest of the class?

    As far as possible, students of similar learning abilities shall be grouped together in a class. Normally Miss Loi will assess and gauge your current standard when you first contact her as well as during your first lesson with her.

  • Must I attend EVERY session? What if I can’t make it to certain sessions?

    Strictly speaking, no. There are students who selectively attend certain sessions based on the topics they are weak in.

    If you are unable to come for a session, please inform Miss Loi in advance so that a make-up session can be arranged for you.

  • What is provided at each Jφss Sticks Session?

    Apart from Miss Loi’s legendary all-out teaching, text books, 10-year series, worksheets, formula sheets, graph papers and selected killer questions from Miss Loi’s exam papers are all available to make your stay a pleasant one.

    As an added bonus, mini-tests and homework are usually thrown in at the end of each session. ;)

  • What do I need to bring for each Jφss Sticks Session?

    Apart from yourself (duh), please bring along your calculator, mathematical instrument (e.g. compass), and your personal multi-coloured kawaii stationery to jot down important tips and notes.

    But most importantly, you must bring along your finished homework from the previous session!
