PSLE English Oral SBC Workshop - 16 March 2026

• Dissect and anticipate questions logically
• Describe emotions and actions effectively from static photographs
• Step-by-step guide to make full use of the stimulus
• Master the strategy and structure of an SBC answer
• Explore key themes and topics commonly tested in the SBC

This is a highly hands-on, small group workshop (maximum of 10 students) designed to help children approach the Stimulus-Based Conversation (SBC) as a communication skill.

The aim is to empower them to speak with confidence and fluency, while building techniques that feel natural and authentic.Through a ground-up approach developed from extensive coaching experience, the workshop tackles the very challenges students often face.

By breaking down each question, students gain awareness of the logic and structure behind strong responses. Step-by-step guides provide a systematic method to use details from the stimulus and translate static pictures into words.Most importantly, the workshop encourages students to draw on their own experiences. By making their answers personal, familiar, and comfortable, we create the scaffolding they need to express their ideas clearly and confidently.

This workshop will be run by Discovering Potential's founder, Hwang Siew Ling, who has extensive experience training students in PSLE Oral skills. Siew Ling is an Interview and Communication Coach, and she is the author of the PSLE Oral SBC Guidebook (2nd edition will be available in November 2025). Siew Ling coaches students in group workshops as well as on a 1-on-1 basis. Read her Google reviews on our website home page www.discoveringpotential.com.sg.

Mr Wong, parent: Siew Ling provided great guidance and encouragement that enabled my daughter to perform well for her DSA interview and Prelim Oral. She received a confirmed offer by SOTA and her Prelim Oral improved by 2 grades! I’m certain she will perform well for her PSLE oral as well.

Ms H.C, parent: I am writing this email to tell you a piece of good news! Y has received full marks in his English Oral test in his Mid-year Examination. Thanks so much for your great help! He really improved a lot after all your lessons with him. Many thanks!"

Info: Understand the difference between Q1, Q2 and Q3, learn how to use the stimulus to anticipate questions in a logical manner

Info: Use our PEES method as an effective scaffolding to present holistic answers that are clear, systematic and complete

Info: Use our CLUES method to fully utilise the stimulus. Learn step by step techniques how to look at the picture systematically and translate it into words.

Info: Feel as if there is nothing to say about the picture, not sure if you can say that you have never done what the stimulus shows, unable to think of experiences? All these on the ground, real challenges will be discussed. Learn tips on how to address them.

Info: Using a carefully selected range of different photo stimulus, put all the theory learnt into practice. Different pictures will present a different challenge, exposing you to more useful techniques. This is an important segment involving hands on practice, discussions, feedback and coaching.
