PSLEPrep was named alongside cher.ai (the AI study companion from Mind Stretcher) as one of the Singapore-built platforms parents are using.

About PSLEPrep

PSLEPrep is a Singapore-built, voice-based AI examiner for PSLE Oral practice. The AI runs the session like a real PSLE oral examiner — it shows the stimulus, asks the SEAB-format question, listens to your child’s answer, follows up where a real examiner would, and produces a per-dimension scorecard at the end.

We cover both PSLE oral exams: English (Reading Aloud + Stimulus-based Conversation) and Chinese 华文口试 (朗读 + 看录像会话). Every session is scored against the real PSLE rubric, with band scores per dimension and a teacher’s note in English.

PSLEPrep is S$29.90/month with no commitment. You can try 10 free practice sessions to start, no credit card required.
