If this were so, then, why are pupils and students of the subject dreading it?
Mathematics in itself is not more challenging than any other subject. Preconception, prejudices and half-truths have played a major part in causing many potentially good students to run away. With the right mind-set and a fun-filled environment, we are confident that we can restore the lost glory and excellence in mathematics and related subjects through our Specialist Maths Home Tutoring Program.
In addition to the wrong mind-set, some leading figures have also not presented the subject in the most appropriate manner to encourage the students' interest in Mathematics. When there is no excitement on the part of the parent/teacher, the students easily find the subject boring and irrelevant.
In the recent past, experience has shown that real-life applications of mathematical concepts only need to be carefully explained to the student. Oftentimes, this is all the student needs to appreciate why s/he needs to interact with and understand the subject better.
At the Specialist Home Tutor programs we offer, our main aim is to restore confidence in our participants through series of activities that explain the subject in fun-filled ways. Students, especially those still in active education - below Age - 19 years - would be encouraged to participate in interactive sessions. The idea is to encourage learning and development of Mathematics-based education for today and tomorrow.
We draw rules and regulations with the consent of parents or/and guardian of every participant. Ours is to facilitate the process to fill the obvious gap and assist in the smooth take-off and help whenever the need arises. It is meant as a mentoring/tutoring program, a relaxed and learning in a fun-filled home environment.
Weekly meetings and interactive online activities are expected to be used in the facilitation of our proposed Specialist Tutoring activities. Our vision is to make Mathematics and related subjects as exciting as possible.
We are convinced that every child deserves to be encouraged to have the solid foundation today for tomorrow's career and leadership challenges.
It is pathetic to note that oftentimes, intelligent students turn away from pursuing interesting careers they genuinely loved - only because of the dread of Mathematics. We are committed to finding a lasting solution and a reversal to this ugly trend in the Specialist Tutoring program.
