Our Upper Secondary School English Curriculum
The Augustine English Classes upper secondary school English tuition curriculum is meticulously crafted to navigate the final, most demanding leg of a student’s journey toward the O-Levels. It is a comprehensive tuition programme designed for mastery and refinement, and every element is geared towards building confidence and achieving peak performance.
Paper 1
Secondary 3 English Curriculum

The Secondary 3 year serves as a critical bridge, consolidating skills from lower secondary and introducing the depth required for the national examination. We focus on elevating students’ abilities to handle more complex tasks with greater independence. Our secondary English tuition at this stage is designed to build a strong, unshakeable foundation for the final year.

  • Paper 1 (Advanced Essay Writing): We transition students from narrative to argumentative and discursive writing. Our guided approach involves breaking down complex essay questions, teaching students how to formulate a strong thesis, and structuring a coherent, persuasive argument. We provide curated content on current affairs and social issues to broaden their perspectives and enhance their understanding.
  • Paper 2 (Critical Analysis & Summary): The focus moves beyond literal comprehension to deep, inferential analysis of challenging texts. We teach a structured methodology for summary writing, focusing on paraphrasing and synthesising information accurately. Students learn to deconstruct nuanced questions on purpose, tone, and authorial intent, a key skill for excelling in the O-Level English paper.
  • Oral Communication Skills: We begin formal preparation for the oral examination, teaching students how to articulate their thoughts clearly on various topics and engage in meaningful, structured conversations.
Paper 2
Secondary 4 English Curriculum

The Secondary 4 year is dedicated to consolidation, refinement, and strategic application. The pace of our English tuition class accelerates as we focus single-mindedly on preparing students for the English examination. Every session is structured to maximise learning and build exam-day resilience.

  • Paper 1 (Exam-Condition Writing Drills): Mastery comes from practice. Students engage in regular, timed writing drills covering all major essay types. We provide intensive, personalised feedback on everything from sentence structure to overall argumentative flow. This rigorous process fine-tunes their writing into a sharp, effective tool for the English exam.
  • Paper 2 (Intensive Timed Practices): We use a wide range of past-year papers and challenging mock papers to hone comprehension and summary skills under pressure. Regular 1-on-1 drills are conducted to address persistent errors and reinforce effective answering techniques, ensuring students can complete the paper with speed and accuracy. This component of our secondary school English tuition is vital for success.
  • Holistic Exam Strategy: Beyond academic knowledge, we equip students with crucial exam strategies, including time allocation across sections, techniques for managing stress, and methods for reviewing answers effectively. Our goal is to ensure secondary school students walk into the examination hall fully prepared, confident, and ready to excel.
