Do you find yourself in a similar situation?
- “My son is not interested in Maths.”
- “I don’t know how to motivate my child to want to do better in Maths.”
- “My daughter is too afraid to ask questions. She is worried that the teacher will scold her if she does not understand the teacher’s methods. So, she has given up on Maths. ”
Most of these parents then reach the wrong conclusion that their children are weak in Maths.
Nothing can be further from the truth!
The truth is EVERY child can do well in Maths. They only need to be taught correctly, using the right techniques, with patience and the proper guidance.
At Knowledge Trail, we understand the struggles you and your child face. After all, we are parents too. We are also former school teachers who have helped many students, even the weakest ones, improve their Maths scores SIGNIFICANTLY within a relatively
short time. We have made it our mission now to address the learning needs of your child.
We believe in making our lessons
- Effective. Every second of the lesson is used to fill up the gaps in your child’s understanding.
- Empowering. We aim to have your child become more self-confident by increasing his knowledge and ability to answer even the hardest of Maths questions.
- Awesome. Every worksheet is carefully designed to build up your child’s understanding and problem solving skills.
Our Primary Maths Tuition Programme has helped many children transform their grades from a “FAIL” to a Band 2 grade or better, within 7 lessons! Some of our students, because of their newly found confidence and understanding of our Model Drawing techniques, go on to score even Band 1 results consistently! Our teachers, all of whom are former Primary School teachers, will teach your child the essential model drawing techniques and strategies to solve even the hardest Problem Sums.
Through our lessons, your child will…
- Attain a deeper understanding of concepts
- Achieve greater confidence in achieving excellent results
- Gain a sustained improvement through carefully designed notes and week-to-week worksheets to practice on
Through practical use of ICT, we help your child understand Mathematical concepts better and faster.
Outline
We can and will help your child do BETTER in Maths, QUICKLY and WITHOUT ANY STRESS!
Here at Knowledge Trail, we believe practice makes perfect. Our teachers will guide your child through a tightly integrated thinking process of:
Step 1:
Understanding the Problem
By learning to highlight key phrases and making concept links, your child will be able to make sense of the question and gain a thorough understanding of it.
Step 2:
Framing the Question
Breaking down and framing the question in smaller, simpler parts allow your child to easily digest the question without being overwhelmed by numbers.
Step 3:
Choosing the Best Strategies to Solve the Problem
Different questions demand their own appropriate model drawing techniques. Your child will learn how to recognise the questions, draw the corresponding model and use it to correctly solve the problem.
Step 4:
Checking for Accuracy
Arriving at an answer is meaningless if it is wrong. Your child will learn how to maximise the allocated time remaining after the test or exam is completed, to check the answer by substituting it back into the question.
We think to ourselves, “Gosh! Were we so stressed during our own school days? How did we ever manage to keep up?” Worse, the syllabus has changed so much that we cannot help our children, even if we had the time to. The questions have just changed so much!
Yet, being in this highly competitive society, where excellent grades matter so much, our children face so much pressure trying their best to do well in their school’s examinations. There are some children who really do very well under such situations, but most other children don’t.
These children, after numerous attempts to do well and who still cannot get the marks they deserve, get discouraged and can become indifferent. As teachers and parents, we know that such children are the hardest ones to reach out to. My wish for such children is that they had obtained help earlier. With early intervention, these children can be turned around and do better in their studies. Subsequently, more opportunities will be opened up to them when seeking university studies and looking for their ideal jobs. ...
