Anannya’s Path to Success: A Story of Hard Work and Determination
Are you feeling stressed and unmotivated preparing for PSLE?
This blog post will talk about Anannya’s success story. Anannya’s mother also shared her experience with Master Maths and gave some advice for parents who are helping their kids prepare for PSLE.
Anannya’s PSLE preparation
All her teachers and friends were also stressing out about PSLE with her. Anannya, her teachers and friends were also counting down the days to PSLE.
On top of that, her teachers bombarded her with practice papers to prepare her for PSLE.
Challenges she faced
She mainly faced challenges for Maths as she was so eager to find the final answer to a question that Anannya did not write the steps required to get the final answer. Because of this, careless mistakes were made during her Maths prelims which made her lose eleven marks.
To add on, she also mixed and matched numbers from the question and when she wrote it down from the question, she changed the numbers and she did not check her answers after that.
But during her PSLE, she double checked the numbers she wrote down to avoid making the same mistake again.
Her PSLE results
She clinched AL 1 not only for Maths but all her other subjects which led to a total score of AL 4 for her PSLE.
Things Anannya found useful during her lessons with MasterMaths
1. When she had a question during the lesson, she raised her hand and her question was answered immediately.
2. She described her learning environment as fun with a sense of humour so that lessons would not get boring.
3. Unlike other tuition centres, MasterMaths does not give as much homework. Anannya received a few questions to work on so that she could understand the entire question and answer it properly.
Her secrets
1. Start early and be consistent with your study plans as there is no such thing as last minutes success stories
2. Expose yourself to different styles of questions before prelims
3. If you are lost at a certain question, do not just look at the final answer as you might not understand the answer well. To elaborate on this:
- Try out the questions first
- Ensure the steps you are thinking of make sense
4. Try the papers you are given and clear any doubts you have to ensure you do not have any gaps in your understanding.
5. Manage your time well so that you would not overwhelm yourself while preparing for PSLE.
6. Take a break after studying one subject. This is important as:
Relaxing before doing each paper will lead to reduced stress when doing the next paper
Continuously doing papers will tire your hands out and you will feel stressed due to the different subjects you have to study for which will lead to your brain being overworked.

3. Do not be too worried about taking breaks
