Explore Our Math Classes

Discover our comprehensive math programs designed to guide students through every stage of their learning journey, from foundational skills in lower primary to advanced problem-solving in upper secondary. Explore how we tailor our classes to meet the needs of each level, ensuring a structured and effective path to success.

Lower Primary.png

Lower Primary (Primary 1 to 4)

  • Focus:
    Building foundational skills in mathematics while addressing sensory sensitivities and cognitive challenges commonly associated with autism.

  • Approach:

    • Introduce basic arithmetic (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) using tactile tools such as counters, cubes, and visual aids.

    • Teach simple geometry (shapes and spatial awareness) through puzzles, coloring, and block-building.

    • Use real-life examples for problem-solving skills to help children relate concepts to daily activities (e.g., counting fruits or calculating costs).

    • Provide routine and predictability in lesson plans to reduce anxiety and enhance engagement.

  • Objective:
    To create a safe and supportive learning environment that promotes mathematical curiosity while accommodating the unique learning needs of each child.

Upper Primary (Primary 5 to 6)

  • Focus:
    Transitioning to more abstract concepts while ensuring understanding through a structured and consistent approach.

  • Approach:

    • Introduce fractions, decimals, and percentages using visual aids like fraction bars and pie charts.

    • Teach problem-solving strategies using step-by-step breakdowns and repetition to reinforce understanding.

    • Use assistive technology such as interactive math apps and games to engage students.

    • Incorporate individualized pacing, allowing children to revisit concepts as needed.

  • Objective:
    Prepare students for the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE) with tailored strategies to help them excel while managing their individual challenges.

Lower Secondary (Sec 1 to 2)

  • Focus:
    Developing critical thinking and introducing advanced mathematical topics tailored to each student's abilities.

  • Approach:

    • Divide students into appropriate streams based on performance:

      • N(T) (Normal Technical): Emphasize practical math applications like budgeting or interpreting charts.

      • N(A) (Normal Academic): Cover algebra, geometry, and data analysis with visual explanations.

      • O-Level Stream: Focus on higher-order thinking with topics like algebraic expressions and coordinate geometry.

    • Utilize group work and peer discussions to develop social and collaborative skills.

    • Provide structured breaks during lessons to manage sensory sensitivities and improve focus.

  • Objective:
    To help students develop confidence and independence in applying mathematical concepts to real-life situations.

Upper Secondary.png

Upper Secondary (Sec 3 to 4)

  • Focus:
    Preparing students for their future academic or vocational paths by specializing in streams that align with their strengths and interests.

  • Approach:

  • For E Maths (Elementary Mathematics): Teach practical math skills such as trigonometry, statistics, and financial math with real-world scenarios.

  • For A Maths (Additional Mathematics): Introduce advanced topics like calculus and logarithms in manageable steps with plenty of practice.

  • Use adaptive learning methods such as one-on-one tutoring or small-group lessons to provide personalized support.

  • Encourage self-regulation techniques like mindfulness exercises to reduce stress during exams and projects.

  • Objective:
    Equip students with the knowledge and skills to succeed in the GCE O-Level examinations or other pathways, ensuring they feel empowered to achieve their goals.
