Testimonial
This tuition centre has friendly, dedicated and professional tutors. One of them is Mr Ong. He is a patient and jovial teacher whose chemistry between him and his students is excellent. Needless to say, his chemistry is also ‘up there’. As a result, my chemistry grades leapt from E (even) in the Prelims to A in the A-Levels! Even though my chemistry grades in JC were mediocre at best even up to the point of Prelims, Mr Ong kept faith in me and encouraged and motivated me to work harder. In the days leading up to the Chemistry A-Levels he was always present in the Whatsapp to answer my questions to the best of his ability and efficiency

Question 1: Are women more disadvantaged than men in your society? (Singapore)
Topic: male & female issues in your society
Issue: whether women are more disadvantaged
Context: your society
Keywords: more disadvantaged
Definition of disadvantaged (OED): An unfavourable circumstance or condition that reduces the chances of success.
Yes – Women are more disadvantaged
1. Women are seen as a liability to their work which thus affects their opportunities at a career
a. Discriminatory practices against pregnant employees still occur in this day and age
i. In 2011, MOM received 112 pregnancy and maternity-related complaints compared to 84 in 2010. On average, there have been 97 complaints each year between 2006 and 2010, with the highest number recorded in 2009
http://www.hrmasia.com/forum/pregnant-youre-fired/128433/
2. Women are perceived to have a tougher time dealing with the societal expectations of beauty
a. Notions of beauty in the Singapore context: Slim, tall, thigh gap, fair…
b. Because of these pressures of conforming to the perception of beauty, women are more likely to fall prey to beauty related illnesses e.g. anorexia, bulimia, depression…
i. Figures from the Singapore General Hospital (SGH) show that 95 youngsters aged 13 to 19 suffered from anorexia or bulimia last year, up from 65 in 2011 and 75 the year before.
http://www.straitstimes.com/breaking-news/singapore/story/more-youngsters-diagnosed-eating-disorders-20131013
ii. Angeline Yap Siling (Ms World Singapore 2014 finalist) – suffered from anorexia from the tender age of 15 because of society’s perceived notion of beauty. Had to battle with her illness for seven years before making a comeback

No – women are not more disadvantaged (does not necessarily mean they have an advantage either)
1. Meritocracy is an ideal that is practiced in many aspects of society
a. In school, career etc meritocracy is practiced. This means that women have equal opportunities as men. For example, in the public service sector, employees are put into different grades that can be roughly mapped to experience. Those who work harder and take up more responsibilities are promoted faster and thus move up the grades quicker. Using this type of meritocratic system, both men and women have equal opportunities, thus women are not more disadvantaged than men.
This notion is also applicable in the education context, where students, regardless of gender are able to receive monetary and other forms of rewards based on their results, which can be seen as a tangible measure of how hard a student works.
2. Women can be seen to be in a position of greater advantage as they are better protected by the law.
a. Women’s Charter is a legislative act that was passed in 1961 to protect and advance the rights of women and girls in Singapore. It is a wide-ranking charter that brings together the regulation of the relationship between husband and wife and the relationship between parents and their children, termination of marriages and division of matrimonial assets. It covers areas such as child custody, divorce and matrimonial rights.
3. Women are recognised for their outstanding contributions to society
a. Her World magazine organises the Women of the Year award and gives them to women who have a positive impact on the community through their selfless dedication and unflagging spirit.
b. E.g. Rachel Eng 2014 winner – notable contribution as a mother of three and as a dedicated legal professional.
c. Comparatively, there is no such award for men. This could suggest that women are at a greater advantage since the recognition could open the route to more opportunities in career or social aspects.
d. In addition to the womens’ awards, there are also other awards that have seen women awardees. E.g. The prestigious cultural medallion was presented to Jennifer Tham in 2012 to recognise her achievements in artistic excellence in the music scene in Singapore

Testimonial Biology Tutor
Every year thousands of students struggle with the rigor of the A levels, but i have been lucky enough to have met Mr Wax Tan at the beginning of J2. Mr Tan was something of a miracle; always having a nick for making biology a fun yet fulfilling subject to learn. His classes would always be filled with questions by students and one way or another he would always be open and happy to clarify all our questions, even when it meant staying back after class, texting us or even making appointments before the next class to answer those queries. Mr Tan is a caring teacher too; I remembered him giving us snipets of motivational talks before each major exam, always reminding us to practice some GRIT ( as he calls it) and never to give up. He sees the potential within each student, picks them out and nourishes it. More than that, he would go the extra mile to ensure our love for biology never dies even after disappointing results during the Prelims exams, doing so by providing support all the way through. Mr Tan was a great teacher, but more than that, he was a great friend(: Thank you Mr Tan for helping me ace my biology exam.

motion in a straight line.
3. Describe qualitatively the motion of bodies falling in a uniform gravitational field with air resistance.
4. Explain why, for all real throws, the time taken to reach the maximum height must be shorter than the time taken to return to the starting point.

Exam Tip 8
EFFECT OF AIR RESISTANCE
When an object is in motion (either on the ground or in the air), there is always air resistance acting on the moving object in a direction OPPOSITE the direction of motion.
– Air resistance is a FRICTIONAL FORCE which:
– Increases with the surface area (size) of the object;
– Increases with the speed of the object;
– Increases with the density of air.

Atomic Structure – Concise Notes
The Structure of An Atom
· The nucleus of an atom consists of protons and neutrons.
· Protons are positively charged particles and neutrons are particles with no electric charge.
· Electrons are negatively charged particles moving around the nucleus.
The Proton Number and the Neutron Number
· Proton number is the number of protons in an atom. You can identify an atom by its proton number.
· Nucleon number is the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
· Atoms have no net charge because every atom has the same number of protons and electrons.
Isotopes
· Most elements occur naturally as a mixture of isotopes.
· Isotopes have the same number of protons and electrons but different numbers of neutrons.
· Isotopes have similar chemical properties but different physical properties.
Arrangement of Electrons in the Atom
· Electrons are arranged in electron shells around the nucleus.
· Each electron shell can hold only a limited number of electrons.
· The electrons in the outer shell of an atom are called valence electrons
· Radioisotopes have uses in the medical field and in archaeology.
