A renowned philosopher, George Santayana once said, “A country without a memory is a country of madmen.” History has always been a popular subject choice for students among the humanities and hence the demand for History private home tuition. It is a requirement in most institutions for students to enrolled in at least one or two history modules, regardless of their major. This raises the question, why the emphasis though? History is something that has occurred and is factual. Through understanding these facts, students can get the knack of how to progress and improve without committing to similar mistakes. We believe that starting the learning of history from a young age would help students to create connections between various types of people and societies and how humanity came about, cultivate a moral understanding that yields personal individuality. This helps the young to understand the world of work and nurture them into inquisitive and critical thinking adults in the near future.
However, students often find it challenging to excel in History. History is often viewed as a subject that revolves around memorizing specific events and dates and many students end up cramping load of data and then regurgitate these data in their History exam. While it is not wrong, Singapore’s History examination is more than just testing the student on the content they obtained from the textbooks or sample essays distributed by the schools, but to evaluate how and why a particular event happened. To further challenge student’s critical thinking skills, students are also required to interpret and make logical arguments on sources such as posters, recount text, and many other historical sources that they have never seen before. This is where the dedicated History will come in to benefit the students.
