Anyone can advise on kainetik maths?

If you are looking for onsite primary math lessons, these are the PSLE math specialists which are very popular. All 4 centers also appear in the newspapers regularly --

(1) Visible Math at Sin Ming (Thomson)

(2) NickleBee Math at Sin Ming (Thomson)

(3) Concept Math at Novena (Goldhill)

(4) Math Heuristics at Novena (Goldhill)

Having checked with parent chatgroups last few days, here is my humble assessment of the 4 math specialists for psle.

Visible math
https://www.visiblemath.com.sg/
• Large class size. Can be up to 20 students in classroom.
• Reasonable fees.
• Focus on mainstream math training. Mixed ability classes.
• Uses the 'cognitive conceptual approach' and 'concept builder' to help students understand the syllabus.

Nicklebee math
http://www.nicklebeetutors.com/
• Small class size. Max 4 students in a session.
• Fees are expensive
• Focus on advanced math training. To target the 4-mark and 5-mark type of challenging psle math questions.
• Teaches their own techniques called : 'unitary method' and 'C3PO math'. Also includes some methods from gifted education programme math and olympiad math.

Concept math
https://www.conceptmath.com/
• Moderate class size. Max 12 students in a session. Founder's class may have more students.
• Reasonable fees.
• Focus on mainstream math training. Can join the founder's class for more advanced psle math workshops.
• Uses MOE based model method and their own 'S.M.A.R.T. approach'.

Math heuristics
https://mathsheuristics.com/
• Moderate class size. Max 10 students in a session.

For Oodles thinkingmath, best to go to the main HQ at Thomson. The other branches are run by franchisee.

A very underrated math tuition centre in the east would be Christopher Learning Centre (https://christopher-learning-centre.business.site/). It's apparently very popular amongst those staying near Katong or Siglap. You might want to consider them.
