Mathematics Tuition classes for Primary and Secondary classes today as we focus on examination questions and problem sums. Here’s what happened in class today.

SECONDARY GCE O Level Class

Our Secondary class are specific for O level students in preparation for the GCE O level finals. They have come a long way since the beginning of the year and are currently working on past year exam papers. Spending time remembering the techniques and working on only the hardest sums when our tutor Mr Wong is around means that they get guidance and a fallback when they hit a tough question and cannot resolve it.

For Additional Mathematics, it is important to cover all the topics since Secondary 3, which is quite a lot of details to remember and complete before the GCE O levels comes along. Secondary 4 students in this class have spent most of this year learning, but as of June, they will complete their syllabus with us and start on their Mathematics revision, making sure they keep everything fresh in their memory. Along with that schedule, they will have to embark on attempting past year papers, both GCE O level Ten Year Series, as well as past year local school preliminary papers.

This represents the bulk of the work that requires students to spend hours preparing before they go for their GCE O level examinations, but an essential part to make sure they fully prepare themselves to get A1 for their examinations. We practice on coverage, technical details, memorisation, accuracy in calculation and speed. During these lessons, we make sure the students do not make any silly mistakes, identify it and make them remember where the common mistakes and pitfalls are.

So today’s lessons, the students did most of the trigonometry questions, including bearings, 3D figures for E Maths, and for Additional Mathematics, Quadratic Equations and Range of Values of a graph. Including drawing of curves and transformation.

Primary 4 Mathematics

For the Primary Mathematics, this is a Primary 4 class and is working on problem sums for Age, which involves questions regarding the differences on two persons ages and how to find out the age of an individual. It is relatively new concepts for these Primary 4 students doing Mathematics, but once they understand the mechanics, they will be able to start solving sums and evolutions of these sums, especially good foundation for their future work for Primary 5 and PSLE Mathematics that will need this solid foundation.

Our tutors preparing for classes

As the students are nearing the End-of-Year Primary Examinations, we prepare them and make sure they clear a few papers before attempting their own school examinations. Other than the usual classes where our tutors teach students the whole syllabus and also real world applications of what they learn, (we usually teach them out of the box thinking) we have to give them some experience on tacking examinations and advice primary students on where they can improve.

This is where tutor Yuet Ling prepares classes and makes sure our students comes to a prepared class and things gets done without wasting any time. We also make sure our students feels confident attempting their own examinations and have them performing at their best.

NURTURING YOUR CHILD TO BE FORWARD-THINKING INDIVIDUALS OF THE 21ST CENTURY ARE THE AIM OF OUR CLASSES.

And we are definitely very different to other tuition centres in Singapore, in an absolutely brilliant way, so do come along and see what we mean. It might change you and your child’s perception in learning and education.
