      For one, my niece has just graduated from Dunman High and although some teachers have been a great help, there are some who truly have wasted her time during lessons. In the Senior High programme in Dunman High, there are often complaints of the less than average economic teachers who are unsure of the syllables that would teach you in JC1, before moving on to JC2 where you would finally able to get proper teachers. Is this the case for Dunman High's senior high programme.
      Econs is quite a tough subject to handle. My guess is that in year 1, you are still going through the basic contents in micro. Besides, it will never be in the curriculum to teach how to tackle questions and if the teacher does it, it will be just before the A levels. My understanding is that this is the norm even in HCI and RI. Students are left to sink usually in the first year unless you get the help of the tuition agencies.

        Students are left to \"sink\" on their own in every school every subject unless the students take an interest to ensure he/she understand the stuff and cope. Making appointments to consult teachers is a norm. Not every one goes for tuition.

                        That's not true. There are in general 3 paths to get the content and learn. You learn on your own, you get guidance from the teacher if you happen to get a good and willing one or you pay for the guidance from a tutor. I am not discriminating against self learning, but getting good guidance is an important part of any learning process. I do not eliminate the last option if needed in order to get sufficient grounding and start learning on your own.
