PSLE marks are rarely lost because a child does not know the method. They are lost in one specific step — and because nobody identifies which step broke, the same mistake repeats. Each guide below shows the step, the mistake, and how to fix it.

Questions parents ask

Is the PSLE practice really free?

Yes. The daily drills cover all four subjects, free for your first month, with no signup and no card. The 3-minute diagnostic is also free.

Which levels does Kyly Tuition cover?

Maths at Primary 4, Primary 5, Primary 6 (PSLE), Secondary 1 and Secondary 2 — the step-by-step Maths problem sums come at your child's own level: 156 P4 questions across 13 topics, 192 P5 questions across 16 topics, the 400-question PSLE bank for P6, and 450 Sec 1 questions and 450 Sec 2 questions across 18 secondary topics each. The multiple-choice drills and the 3-minute diagnostic are PSLE-level.

Does step-by-step marking matter?

Yes. A right or wrong answer does not tell a child where the thinking broke. Marking each step identifies the exact step, which is what stops the same mistake repeating.

Which topics are tested in the 2026 PSLE?

Nobody outside the exam board can tell you what will be in the 2026 paper, and anyone who claims to is guessing. What these guides do instead is take a real question from the topic your child is practising now and show the exact step that breaks — because that is what costs marks, whatever appears in the paper.

How do I know which topic my child is actually weak in?

Take the free 3-minute diagnostic: 10 PSLE-style Mathematics questions, then a topic-by-topic gap map of what is solid and what is not. No card and no signup.

What is the difference between Paper 1 and Paper 2 in PSLE Maths?

Maths Paper 2 is the written-working paper rather than multiple choice. The free bank includes those written sums, and marks each step separately, so a correct method that slips in one step still shows you where it went wrong.

Why does my child keep making careless mistakes in PSLE Maths?

‘Careless’ mistakes are usually the same step done the same wrong way each time, not random slips. Read a few days of working and look for the line that is identical and wrong — that is the step to fix.

Is the free practice enough on its own?

It is daily practice with honest explanations, not a replacement for school or for a good human teacher. Used alongside them, it tells you which step to fix next.
