Numeracy is a key learning area for primary level students. Our Maths tutors not only focus on teaching mathematical concepts, but also emphasise the importance of teaching students how to justify and demonstrate logical reasoning for their mathematical calculations. We teach students the ‘why’ and ‘how’ of Mathematics, as the ability to explain their different ways of solving problems translates to how our students can apply their mathematical knowledge in other contexts. Our Maths tutors encourage students to use this knowledge to prove whether something is true or false when investigating problems in the real-world.

Mathematics is a way to understand our surroundings. Understanding is of concepts which are grounded in theories. Maths, therefore, is first and foremost a collection of theories and concepts from which procedures are derived. Treating maths as only a set of procedures to conduct analysis is to miss out on the depth we can reach when learning about our reality and foregoing the most basic way of logical communication with each other. Whilst our curriculum and schools often ignore such perspectives of maths, our Maths tutors are here to ensure that students are guided and taught the very foundation of mathematics. Our maths lessons are designed to demonstrate the richness that mathematics has to offer to our students as they grow and develop personally, as well as academically.

Applying mathematics is as broad as applying basic literacy when communicating with one another. Our tutors help guide students to explore ways maths is applied in their areas of interest; their niche. The useful nature of maths extends beyond the fields of science and technology. You can find mathematical analysis implemented in industries such as finance, healthcare and pharmaceutical, entertainment, and even education. Our lessons aim to instill the habit of using maths to generate data and evidence as you progress through life’s endeavours.
