With the Oral component now making up 20% of the overall English exam score—thanks to the additional 5 marks added to both the Stimulus-Based Conversation (SBC) and Reading Aloud segments—it’s no surprise that parents are looking for specialised English oral workshops to help their children.
Unlike regular English classes, these workshops not only focus on articulation and quick thinking but also equip students with structured techniques to tackle Stimulus-Based Conversation (SBC) and Reading Aloud.
Through exam-focused strategies, personalised feedback, and practice with commonly tested themes, students refine their pronunciation, expression, and response structure—gaining the confidence and skills needed to ace their oral exams.
