December 2020 Revision Programme for JC and IB Students
Do you need a quick yet effective review of key Micro concepts during the December school holidays to help you strengthen your foundation for JC1/IB Year 5 topics before progressing to JC2/IB Year 6? At EconsLab, we organize Revision Classes to give our students the knowledge, skills and much needed boost of confidence to set them in the right mode to continue their learning journey to JC2/IB Year 6.
Do not worry about large class size and hence inability to follow the content covered. Our small class size allows for ample interaction between students and our Dean’s List Star Tutor Ms Foo. With a small class, students would not feel left out. It is also easy for students to ask questions at any point in time without feeling awkward. Students’ struggle in class will not go unnoticed due to the small class size.
