Less mugging, more momentum. If your teen can show up weekly and do 30 minutes of homework, we'll handle the rest. So A-Levels become a milestone, not a miracle.
Small weekly wins → momentum
- 1.5-hour sprints on fundamental concepts
- Short Notes for quick wins; Long Notes to build depth that lasts.
- Parents often notice fewer careless mistakes within 4 weeks.
Independent learner, not a crammer
- Definition-first approach + explain-your-thinking steps.
- Build deep understanding, compounding from secondary to JC to uni.
- Confidence rises when students know the “why”, not just the “what”.
Built for the IP pace + support
- IP-specific materials, practical skills, and past-year papers.
- Flexible around CCA peaks + after-class WhatsApp help.
- Subject selection & overseas options guidance when needed.
Good fit if…
- Student can attend weekly and do 25-35 minutes of pre-work.
- Wants to keep knowledge beyond the exam.
- Open to a short Starter Challenge before any trial.
Not a fit if…
- Looking for last-minute miracles without consistent effort.
- Expects answers without explaining reasoning.
- Unwilling to commit to basics for 4-6 weeks.
Why families choose Eclat (vs typical tuition)
Eclat Institute
- Momentum, not mugging: Weekly 30-min pre-work + 90-min sprints. See fewer careless mistakes in 4 weeks.
- Keeps knowledge (beyond the exam): Definition-first and explain-your-thinking steps help learning stick into JC/uni.
- Built around the IP pace: School-specific materials and higher-order tasks so the challenge matches their classroom.
- CCA-friendly support: Flexible class options plus after-class WhatsApp help; make-ups when sick.
- Clear progress parents can see: Termly diagnostics and marked-work samples with concrete next steps.
What usually happens elsewhere
- Cram-heavy, short-term fixes: Worksheets that boost a test but fade right after—students 'give back to teacher'.
- One-size-fits-all pacing: Designed for O-Level tempo; IP teens often feel under-challenged or bored.
- Harder to catch slips: Large groups mean misconceptions linger until the next test.
- Help stops when class ends: Little or no between-lesson support or feedback.
- Marks without a plan: Scores reported, but no actionable next steps at home.
Eclat by the Numbers
What Our Students and Parents Say
Frequently Asked Questions
My teen is capable but inconsistent. How will you help them build momentum without burning out?
We start small and specific: 30 minutes of homework each week, then a 90-minute class that targets one bottleneck at a time. Short Notes deliver quick wins for the next test; Long Notes and Definition Lists build depth that survives into JC. We track tiny improvements (fewer careless slips, clearer explanations) so your teen feels progress and wants to keep going.
I'm in IP Year 1-2. Is it too early for tuition? What is the lightest plan that still makes a difference?
Early doesn't mean heavy. We focus on building solid fundamentals so you study more effectively. Slow and consistent progress works. Upper secondary and junior college build on lower secondary so starting early helps.
How do you make learning stick so they don't 'give back to teacher' after exams?
We teach definitions first and ask students to explain their thinking step-by-step, not just write answers. Every topic pairs retrieval practice with application questions, and we revisit ideas across weeks. The goal is an independent learner who can handle the IP pace now and carry the knowledge into A-Levels and university.
I hope to apply to competitive local courses or overseas universities. How does this programme help beyond grades?
Consistent, independent learning is exactly what admission officers are looking for. We advise on subject choice, build weekly habits that show rigour, and, when appropriate, map a University Gameplan: projects, competitions, etc. Grades open doors.
Can we try a class first? How do you decide if we are a fit?
We work on a monthly basis with no long-term commitments. You can sign up with a month with us and quit if you find that we are not meeting your expectations. You can contact us to find out more.
