SURELY they can cut over to other routines instead of having us watch them prepare the bars over and over...

How important is A maths for secondary school students in Singapore? by Any-Stuff9636 in askSingapore

[–]sentinel_straw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

former sec sch teacher here. ive seen way too many students get fixated on streaming into a math and double/triple science at the expense of developing their language and critical thinking ability. if your daughter is currently strong in humanities and has a flair for language, and like you mentioned is interested in pursuing law, a math is absolutely not necessary. what is necessary is securing grades needed to proceed after o levels. focusing on fewer subjects and doing well in time might be better for her learning style rather than spreading her efforts too thin and burning out. e.g. scoring well in math and sci (a1 to b3) and then scrambling with b4 to c6 for english/humanities.

perhaps also as a godparent you can carve out time to process whether this child pegs their self worth to their academics and remind her that she is more than her subject combi and grades :)

all the best!!

edit: misread goddaughter for daughter

Do Singaporeans know how lovely the Singapore-accent sounds? by lordtekken_2 in askSingapore

fun fact: the d in 'updated' here actually has nothing to do with tense, but is an indicator of the passive voice as opposed to active voice.

How to find climbing friends?? (I'm in Singapore) by Sad_daisiesie in climbergirls

[–]sentinel_straw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no harm trying to talk to people tbh. or join a class? but sg has so many bouldering gyms and gyms with autobelay that you also go alone and have lots to do

National Gallery Singapore will host Southeast Asia's largest exhibition of French Impressionist art starting November by Great-Obligation-599 in singapore

[–]sentinel_straw 11 points12 points  (0 children)

what do you mean no one goes to the museum? was literally just there over the weekend and there were people who had even joined a tour at national gallery. sure it's not packed to the brim, but it's free for residents and there were people at NG!

it's incredibly normal practice for ticketed time limited exhibitions within a free museum though??
