Kinderplay Math

(Ages 4 – 6yrs)

Mathematics relates to ideas and concepts about quantity and addresses logical and spatial relationships.

In this programme, learning Math can be incorporated into block play, dramatic play, sand and water play and outdoor play.

Children can also make connections between mathematics and musical experiences or art when they explore rhythmic or visual patterns and symmetry.

In various activities children can also understand the number concepts and also build the foundation for understanding the characteristics and properties of two-and three-dimensional geometric shapes.

Math Tuition

(Tuition tailored to all levels.)

Pre-school Level

Our philosophy of teaching is to create fun math-loving children. We guide children through the "whys" of math while teaching the "how's". All worksheets are planned and administered depending on the level of the child. Based on the results that we get from every lesson we then design personalised action plans for each student, covering areas that need further revision and practice to help them achieve a higher degree of understanding and application.

Primary/ Secondary Level

We offer personalised group tutoring services to help students acquire the necessary level of competency in their required subjects and also promote independent learning habits, through a co-ordinated use of school textbooks and assessment materials. Our tuition is known for the following:

• Small class-sizes of up to a maximum of 6 students
• Personalised lessons that are targeted at each student's area of concern and matches their existing level of competency.
• During a typical lesson of 1.5 hours, students will be assigned exercises by the tutor or do their school homework. Each student can be assured of a minimum of 15 to 20 minutes of 1-to-1 instruction related to their assigned exercises or school homework during the lesson.
• This approach allows the student a high level of flexibility to discuss and learn subjects/topics that are essential to the student at that moment.

Other benefits:

• Revise and strengthen concepts learnt from school.
• Fill in gaps in knowledge.
• Identify areas where errors are commonly committed in problem sums and higher order questions.
• Build confidence and proficiency in tackling.

Olympiad Math Programme

(Pre-school – Secondary 2; ages 6yrs – 12yrs)

This programme is designed to expose primary and secondary students to challenging problems, interesting puzzles and key mathematical concepts to help them develop critical and creative thinking skills. The scheme also prepares them for higher level math courses.

Topics in the Olympiad Math Programme includes: Number theory, Geometry, Logical thinking and Arithmetic.

Benefits of the Programme

• Stimulate the student's interest and natural curiosity for problem solving.
• Broaden their mathematic knowledge and perception.
• Experience the satisfaction and feeling of accomplished upon the discovery of their new problem solving abilities.
• Teachers will also monitor the progress of the students by catering to the learning needs of the students, achieving differentiated learning.

Math Preparation Course for Foreign Students

(Primary Level – "A" Level)

Our first Math Preparation Course for Foreign Students was held in October 2008. The initial 3 week programme was attended by thirty-five selected secondary international students and was conducted by Mr Lim Khia Kiam and Miss Gan Hwee Choo.

The Math Preparation Course for Foreign Students, lets students work closely with facilitators who conduct group activities concerning application of real-life mathematical problems.

The aim of the scheme is to help students establish their level of competencies in the various mathematic areas essential for math courses in the Singapore School educational system. Thereafter, they are given further advanced exercises to stretch their knowledge and strengthen their problem solving ability.

All the students are assessed accordingly and given certificates of achievement at the end of the course.

MasterHand Abacus

(Pre-school – Primary: ages 4yrs -10 yrs)

Our Abacus programme is designed to sharpen children's memory and concentration power, with the use of their hands, eyes and brain. Children will also learn to be disciplined, patient and confident. They will develop mental calculation skills and understand numerical concepts.

Current programmes are running on Saturdays from 12:30 – 1:30pm.

For more details about the programme and costing please contact us directly or leave your details in the online enquiry box.

MasterHand Integrated Science Programme

(Pre-school – Primary 6)

Young children are naturally curious.

They wonder what things are called, how they work and why things happen. The foundations of scientific learning lie in inquiry and exploration and these are the tools of active learning. In the MasterHand Integrated Science Programme, children will develop their understanding on the scientific concepts in all content areas and gain a enthusiasm for physics, chemistry and biology and humanities.

Field trips are supplemented within the programme from time to time to give children a hand-on learning experience of science processes and functions. The programme serves to reinforce teaching in other key subjects such as Mathematics and Geography.
