I was also scared when I was offered to transfer to the Express Stream when I was in NA. But when I accepted the offer and after one year of studying in that stream I found that they offer you the stream for a reason, they realise your true potential to study more and to improve more. No regrets when transferred to Express :) had fun and made new friends
I also got offered to transfer to the express stream. Since I had so little confidence in myself, I ended up being the only one rejecting it despite ranking top1 in my class and possibly in the cohort. I rejected it as I had failed math-49%, but had scored band 1s for all the other subjects. Hope I can pass math next year and transfer again!
@@teeheeoop9809 i think its better to be safe than sorry tho. im quite jealous that yall already got this offerings, and my overall score for sec 1 was very decent. :(
Shafik and other youth workers from CARE go the extra mile to get past the walls of reserved students. For instance, Shafik once went gardening with a student who loved to eat fruits. “That really got me out of my comfort zone," he shared, “with guidance and mentoring, you have to be creative.”
this video made me cry because this boy finally believed in himself after his father passed away, something that sums up what I'm struggling with now. this made me feel thankful for the people who believed in me, that I'm good enough, I'm amazing. what kind of magic it is when you realise the power it shifts in your heart like a gentle wave to know that they agree with you too that you're so capable of many things and you're going to continue achieving more milestones.
I honestly never regretted schooling at BGSS. Especially my form teacher, Miss Leong who never lose hope on us NT students and all of us sticked together from Sec 1 to Sec 4 (also I dont remember anyone in class wanting to go to NA clas) (T2 Class of 09-12)
Thank you educators who has committed their time to scaffold the young people as they just needed someone to listen and guide them till they fully develop; everyday is a learning day.
Shafik and Zi Yang’s teachers are all in a WhatsApp group chat where they send regular updates on observations on Zi Yang. If something seems amiss that day, Shafik will make time to check up on him.
One of the reasons Japanese schools are so good (I served on my daughters' schools' Board in suburban Tokyo, and was elected "school visitor," curriculum tantoh, within that Board) is that the teachers aim at 100% student success, and do whatever's necessary to get there. "Success" is defined beforehand, command of a given body of curriculum and the steps toward that command. One of the major ways they win is, they enroll all the students as teachers so they don't have to do all the work themselves. Obviously, this is a good idea because it brings more people to bear on the work at hand, educating a bunch of kids. Less obviously, the kids themselves are in much better positions than the single lonely teacher to know who needs what and then to move in on the problem.
i feel like students from elite schools should also receive some sort of guidance to manage stress and anxiety. its difficult to continue on when there is so much pressure and expectations placed on you
I dropped frm Express to NA. Whole different experience. It taught me well. That nobody shall be left behind. The help u get from ur mates are different. U won't get that in express. Where ur problem. Is not their problem. Solve urself. Suck thumb. Dont know? U will fail.
@@lacozfutbol Absolutely true! If you're in Express stream it's like a competition against each other.. That's why I am more comfortable having friends with the other streams.
@@heeyounghana742 exactly. U wouldn't know it till u experience it. Its like a zombie class in express. And u have a lively engaging funny cool and worth while friends in NA.
Keep going. Not an achiever in academic studies, doesn't mean that you will not be an achiever in your life in future. Studying is just a small part of our life and life has so much more to it to achieve success in.
I may not understand how singapore education system works, but i wish there is like this in the philippines especially for college students. We are being pressured too much especially if we are near graduating (aka thesis).
The fact that I am in express with an estimated L1R5 of 10 and already feel like killing myself and feel like committing suicide just shows that despite Singapore’s good education system, they do it at the expenses of their students.
I have a few friends who were in an NT class but took Express MT NA English n math . They were in NT so never had geography,history or lit, so after coming to Sec 2 NA they surprisingly did well n remained well while I remember someone went from NA to NT, n in 2018 there 2 NT students in my school who did very well for their N levels n went straight to ITE without O levels
The pain of losing your father cannot be put into words. Stay strong and live on for your dad.

If you want a good partner in life.. see how they treat their parents . This young boy is a gem.
What about the way he treats others? He says he and friends would pick random targets to humiliate for fun
I always look up to the teachers who do all they can for their students future
Great respect for the Teachers
2:15 "I like maths"
Me : "barely passes emaths"
Don't give up man, I failed 3 term tests in Sec 3 until I got an A2 in the End of Year exams. And that was after I kept failing maths previously
@@Elira-jr4tv ik this 4 years ago, but sec 3 is like a transition from p2 to p5, but tougher
@wtz_under at the same time I got 1 a2 and then I slipped back into b3-b4
This is really an ongoing inspiring success story
This is such an inspiring video!!
Being in the express stream is so depressing and lonely.I relate more with people from other streams.😭😭
Why not drop stream then?
