      For tuition centres, generally PSLE Math, Onsponge, TLL are the bigger names and many colleagues send their children there. For me, i prefer to have private tuition for my 2 girls. Happen to chance on this page and yes, my girls share the same math tutor as @adelineb's DD. And congrats to you, heard from chloe about your girl's excellent performance and is it your younger girl who scored 100 at last year's SA2? Heard something along this from my DDs.

      Personally, i tried out different centres but i prefer engaging private tutor because of the personalised lesson plan and 1-1 focus. So far my girls are doing very well in math and really enjoy lessons with tutor. I think it is important to also strike a balance because some private tutors whom are current sch teachers can be extremely strict which makes it stressful for a child and eventually kills the love for the subject. I understand their desire to produce results but i think both the tutor and child also need to connect well so that they can work together. For my math private tutor, she is flexible with timings and can work extremely well with my girls. Have been with her for 2.5 years and will continue on. Rates are around $40/hr and 2x week lessons, slightly higher but i think its also very affordable and reasonable considering that my girls are doing very well. Do consider her but i understand that slots are limited partly because current students including myself have booked and paid for many additional lessons and also a surge in many new student requests.

      For mummies with p5 children, make sure to push your child now so that psle year will not be too stressful also. There are impt concepts to master so make sure there is adequate practice from tutors and centres. Good luck!
      Hi, Linda here, can I get her number please. THANKS.

          Hope u don’t mind me asking...have you tried using tactile Math manipulatives that she can touch & feel? Eg tie a bunch of 10 chopsticks in one bundle. That’s a “ten” and individual loose ones (eg 3 loose one) - to show eg. Thirteen is 1 tens & 3 ones.

          Heard from a Math education expert that very young children (especially lower primary) need very concrete examples to grasp counting, grouping, addition etc.

          Writing numbers on paper (like what us adults are so used to) is not going to do anything in their brain or help them grasp the concept. It’s too “abstract” for them because they haven’t reached the developmental milestone at that age.

          Just sharing from my experience with my boy, when he first started in P1.
