In the tuition market right now, most of the tuition centres are using Q&A style of teaching. Students are given assignments and assessment books to do. When they’re stuck, they’ll ask the tutor “How to do this”, “How to do that” without understanding why. They go home thinking they have mastered the topic for the day.
The problem becomes even more serious when the only form of Maths training in schools is simply mindless drilling of exam papers using facts and formulas taught in school.
Together, these teaching methods will work, only if your child is aiming for 50-60 marks for their Maths papers.
So how are the other kids scoring 80/90 marks?
For the past 12 years, Math Master Chin has been the secret weapon of numerous top Maths scorers. Interestingly, none were geniuses to begin with.They made careless mistakes. They struggled with problem sums. They got fed up with Maths. But kids are inherently curious & intelligent. Students do not thrive in school, not because of the lack of intelligence, but because the schools do not have the resources to cater to each and everyone. To date, I, Mr Chin, have helped countless students overcome their fear for Maths, survived, if not, aced their exams. My guarantee to all students:
“Mr Chin has helped me regain hopes for PSLE maths and while, obviously, I couldn’t scored A, the B I got is more than I could ever imagine”
“Mr Chin, thank you for teaching me for the past 5 years. Maths couldn’t be any easier”
“Thank you, Mr Chin. I got an A for PSLE”
I am the Maths Master, Mr Chin, and I have been teaching Maths for the past 12 years. From the number of students I have met and taught, I have developed my very own learning system for both Upper Primary and Secondary. It is a unique system where the concepts and skills, such as Math processing skill, are imparted to students in a systematic manner so that students can appreciate how easy Maths really is.
By understanding concepts, students can master Maths more effectively and see quick improvement in their grades.
More practice is not the answer!
Is your child facing difficulties in memorizing math formulae? Even if he/she seems to have understood the formula, he/she is somehow unable to apply it in exams to solve problem sums? After a while, the child may lose interest in Maths and become unmotivated to do more practice altogether, resulting in a vicious cycle that perpetuates poor grades. Giving your child more practice is merely treating the symptom instead of the root cause. It is akin to using weight loss pill to cure obesity, rather than exercising.
Mathematical process skills
Applying facts and formulas learnt in school only helps in solving 50-60% of the questions in an exam. But when students see a more complex question, that’s where they get stuck when they simply apply the method taught in school. Equations get more complicated (solving x2 instead of x), and there’s a higher chance of making careless mistakes. At Math Master Chin, we don’t drill formulas, but problem-solving skills. Once they learn the ability to make connections and right applications, your child will be able to use the same concept and techniques across all other topics.

Upper Primary
Some kids breeze through Lower Primary Maths easily. But when it comes to Upper Primary, they often experience a sharp increase in difficulty. Suddenly, they’re dealing with Algebra and tackling questions that require complex problem-solving skill. Help your child learn the effective approach in solving Maths questions so that when it comes to PSLE, you won’t have to panic because the foundations are set for your child to do well.
Lower Secondary
If Primary level Maths is a walk in the park, then Secondary level Mathswill be a climb up the mountain. The higher demands of the new syllabus and exam format will really stress out any Secondary 1 or 2 students. Our students, on the other hand, are taught Secondary 1 Algebra in Primary 5/6, allowing them to ease into Lower Secondary levels and giving them an edge over their peers.
Upper Secondary
Overloading content and assessments are common when exams are near. Not to mention at the end of Secondary education, it is the national exam that will determine your child’s future. You want your child to score well in order to enter his/her ideal Junior College or Polytechnic courses. Having strong knowledge in Maths can even lead your child to have a future career in finance and business sectors.
Small conducive learning
Due to their shorter attention span, individualized attention by teachers is vital for your child’s learning. While it is common to see class sizes of 18 students in other learning centres, our class size is capped at 8 and separated by their levels for focused learning.
Time tested technique
A lack of know-how is the biggest culprit behind poor Math grades. At their age, students need to be properly guided step-by-step in their thinking so that they know exactly what to do during the exams.Once they master our powerful concept and techniques, a 2-grade jump is within reach.
Mindful practices
The endless drilling on assessment books just doesn’t work anymore. Our class practices are specially chosen to pin-point the dos and don’ts when answering questions. By doing so, students learn not by rote memorization but through genuine understanding of concepts.
