Yeah! We Subdued The A-Math Killer Topics!

First of all, I have to apologised to all my dear readers of my recent MIA (Missing In Action) on this blog.

For those students in Singapore, I hope most of you have enjoyed your 1 week break,re-charge & ready for Term 2! It's going to be a short term with Mid Year Exams upcoming. Haha... I know I know it's mean to remind you all of the exams when the holidays aren't even over yet.

I was away from blogging on more Math Tips as I am focusing on my energy with a few students on subdue-ing the Top Rated Killer A-Math Topics : Logarithms & Trigonometry! It was really intensive for the 3 days but everything was worthwhile.

I learnt lots! Yes I learnt as well. I learn more about how students approach the topics, their challenges, their life! Oh yeah, I also learnt that my students like to play Dai-Di ( A poker card game) in school! [Read more...] about Yeah! We Subdued The A-Math Killer Topics!

Hello everyone,

I know there are on average over 100 readers viewing this blog on a regular basis. Some of you are facing challenges with Math, some are good with the subject but seeking more easier learning methods,some of you are parents or tutors looking for inspiration for your child or yourself.

So I am writing this post to gather from you - my valued readers what else do you want to see on this site in addition to what you see. As you can see, this site is nothing more than my many years of teaching experience of different types of students and some of the strategies which have proven to have worked effectively for them. But this is what I think would be useful only.

The important thing is that you must find them beneficial. So tell me what else do you want to read about, the improvements to the structure of the site so that this blog is more friendly for you for all levels.

California endorses S'pore maths textbook

STUDENTS in California could soon be learning maths the Singapore way.The most populous state in the United States has endorsed the use of made-in-Singapore maths textbooks in some 5,700 elementary schools there.This means schools can tap into state funds to buy these textbooks, the first Asian content to be approved for use in schools in the US.

'This has potential beyond California, as a lot of states base their standards on California,' said Mr Jeffery Thomas, founder of SingaporeMath.com, which distributes Singapore textbooks.

Two series, one for kindergarten and the other for Grades 1 to 5, equivalent to Primary 1 to 5 here, have been approved for use by California's board of education.

The primary series is adapted from the Primary Mathematics Project (3rd edition), first published by Singapore's Ministry of Education and publisher Marshall Cavendish in 1982. [Read more...] about California endorses S'pore maths textbook

Differences between tuition & coaching

Many a times, I tell people that I am a Maths Coach. They will like huh? Maths Coach? You mean tutor?

I am more than a tutor. Though coach is often used in Sports context, I still use it for my designation due to what I provide students.

I not only impart the technical know-hows through real life examples, I also get my dearest students to associate the life skills behind what they are learning. This has proven to be more meaningful for them and this is one of the reasons for students to have breakthroughs in their results.
