Is your child struggling with their mathematics papers? Here are a few tips your child can use to better prepare for the big examination day and perform better with the help of our tutors. Terry Chew Academy has qualified tutors for secondary maths (O Level E Math, O Level A Math) and primary maths to provide support for your child.
As your child progresses through academic milestones, he or she will sit for mathematics examinations in the form of O Level E Math, O Level A Math, and PSLE Mathematics. If your child is struggling in mathematics, continue reading to see how Terry Chew Academy can help your child excel.
O Level E Math stands for Elementary Mathematics, a subject that provides students with fundamental mathematical knowledge. As it is commonly chosen for JC and polytechnic entry, it is considered a crucial subject. If your child does not understand O Level E Math well, it might be difficult for them to keep up with their peers.

O Level A Math refers to Additional Mathematics, a subject in secondary school mathematics that exposes students to more challenging mathematical concepts and prepares them for H2 mathematics in JC or advanced mathematics in certain polytechnic modules. It is important to note that O Level A Math is optional while O Level E Math is compulsory.
Before continuing to secondary school, Primary 6 students sit for the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE). In PSLE Mathematics, students learn problem-solving, critical thinking, and analytical skills.
As mathematics can be difficult to grasp, it is common for students to make mistakes. These include:
Under the right guidance, students can avoid making common mistakes during O Level E Math, A Math or PSLE exams. Below are some pointers:
Building a strong foundation that is not solely based on memorisation is crucial. Rest assured that your child will be on track to establishing a solid foundation at Terry Chew Academy, where tutors will guide students through applying the concepts into practice.
Prior to any examination, do not cram at the last minute. Doing so is counterproductive because it reduces sleep, negatively impacting concentration and performance.
It is important to ensure that your child understands their mistakes and continuously tests himself or herself.
Mnemonics is a great learning technique that aids in information retention. An example is "TOA CAH SOH", a mnemonic for trigonometric functions in O Level E Math.
Self-practice using the TYS is beneficial if your child is aware of the areas that require improvement.
However, it might be unproductive if your child's foundation in O Level E Math is weak. In this case, O Level Maths tuition at Terry Chew Academy can help your child master the topics so that self-practice can be more effective.
The best time to prepare your child for examinations is now. Be it for O Level E Math, A Math, or PSLE Mathematics, students must keep up with the mathematics curriculum and remain examination-ready. As Mathematics is a subject that needs constant practice, it's never too early to start your child's with mathematics exam topics.
