Our online one-to-one SPM Reka Bentuk Grafik Digital tuition gives each student an experienced teacher assigned to them, with lessons built around the student’s own layouts and project notes. The first class is a one-hour trial class (from RM50), with the fee agreed before it starts.
Who does this tuition help?
Students in this subject usually have ideas and software skills, and lose marks on explaining and organising them.
- Visual hierarchy. Everything is the same size, so nothing leads the eye.
- Process documentation. The final design is fine, but the steps from concept sketch to layout are vague.
- Justifying choices. The student likes a colour but cannot give a design reason.
A quiet student who hesitates to show work in class may find it easier to discuss a layout one-to-one, where the feedback is about the design and stays between student and teacher.
What does a lesson look like?
Here is an original critique of a fictional school fun-run poster. The student used the same font size for the event name, date, venue and sponsor line.
The teacher asks: if a student walks past for two seconds, what should they read? The student answers: the event name and the date.
| Element | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| Event name | 24 pt | 48 pt, bold |
| Date and time | 24 pt | 28 pt |
| Venue | 24 pt | 18 pt |
| Sponsor line | 24 pt | 12 pt |
The teacher then asks the student to explain each change in a sentence, such as: “The name is largest and boldest because it must be read first.” The skill is giving a reason in the language of the subject, and the student repeats it on new layouts until it becomes routine.
What can online lessons do, and what stays with the student?
Online lessons cover critique of your layout, design principles, planning a design process and feedback on written explanations. The teacher asks about parts of your design as you talk.
The project you submit for assessment is made by you, using your school’s software and within your school’s rules. The teacher does not produce assessed artwork and cannot promise a grade.
