  • WhatsApp support between lessons
  • Ultra-convenient from King Albert Park → DTL: 1 stop to Sixth Avenue (DT7)

For exam details and assessment structure, see the official SEAB GCE O-Level.

A-Math Topics We Coach (Sec 3–4)

  • Algebraic Techniques: factorisation, partial fractions, inequalities, completing the square
  • Functions & Graphs: transformations, inverse/compound functions, intersections
  • Indices & Surds; Logarithms: laws, manipulation, equations
  • Sequences & Series: AP/GP, sum/term relations, problem types
  • Trigonometry (Core & Identities): R-formula, double/compound angles, solving equations, proofs
  • Coordinate Geometry & Circles: loci, perpendicular/parallel conditions, circle theorems (A-Math scope)
  • Calculus: differentiation (product/quotient/chain), tangents/normals, optimisation, kinematics basics; integration (polynomials, substitution), areas under curves
  • Applications: modelling, non-routine questions, mixed-topic exam problems

Our Method (built for A-Math success)

  • Fencing Method: start simple → add one layer at a time until exam-level challenge
  • CRA progression: Concrete → Representational → Abstract for sticky understanding
  • Interleaving & Retrieval: short, mixed drills so techniques remain “ready-to-use”
  • Think-aloud coaching: students articulate reasons; tutors correct misconceptions early
  • Exam discipline from Day 1: layout, units, diagrams, accuracy checks, time splits

Lesson Flow (90 minutes)

  1. Recall sprint (key identities/skills)
  2. Mini-lesson (first principles, worked example, common traps)
  3. Guided → independent practice (scaffolded to exam difficulty)
  4. Timed set (Paper 1/2 styles with mark-scheme expectations)
  5. Error analytics & micro-homework (target the 1–2 skills that move marks fastest)

Learner Pathways

  • Bridging track: shore up algebra/indices/surds; rebuild accuracy and confidence
  • Core to A1 track: systematic climb with weekly micro-tests and timed sets
  • Enrichment/High-achiever: proof-style reasoning, olympiad-flavoured extensions, speed+precision training

Outcomes Parents Notice

  • Cleaner, faster algebra & calculus
  • Fewer careless mistakes; stronger method marks
  • Better time management and question selection
  • Confidence with identities & non-routine problems
  • Upward trend toward A1/A2 performance

Getting Here from King Albert Park

  • Downtown Line (DTL): King Albert Park (DT6) → Sixth Avenue (DT7) (1 stop).
  • Our classroom is steps from Sixth Avenue MRT, making after-school lessons simple and safe.

Class Details

  • Format: 3-pax premium small groups (strict cap)
  • Duration: 1.5 hours weekly (+ pre-exam clinics)
  • Materials: curated notes, identity sheets, calculus drills, weekly micro-tests
  • Location: Sixth Avenue MRT area
  • Next step: Book a parent–student consultation via our homepage.
    Limited “trial lessons” may be available depending on 3-pax capacity.

Parent FAQs

Q1: My child is weak in algebra—can A-Math still work?
Yes. We run a bridging block to stabilise algebra/indices/surds, then re-enter core A-Math topics with confidence.

Q2: How do you prevent careless errors?
Error typology (concept/read/arithmetic), red-flag checklists, and timed micro-sets with reflective corrections.

Q3: Do you sync with school pace?
We align homework and clinic sessions to upcoming tests while ensuring long-term mastery.

Q4: When will we see improvement?
Typically 2–4 lesson cycles into our diagnose→coach→test→review loop, accuracy and confidence rise noticeably.

Secondary Additional Mathematics Tuition | King Albert Park — 3-Pax Small Groups

For Secondary school students in Singapore, Additional Mathematics (A-Math) is one of the most demanding yet rewarding subjects. It serves as the gateway to higher-level mathematics and science, shaping students’ ability to handle advanced problem-solving in Junior College, Polytechnic, IB, and STEM careers.

At EduKateSG Bukit Timah, located just a short MRT ride away from King Albert Park MRT (via the Downtown Line to Sixth Avenue MRT), we specialise in 3-pax small group A-Math tuition. This premium model ensures personalised teaching, first-principles learning, and exam mastery, giving every student the confidence to excel in school and national examinations.

Why Additional Mathematics Is a Game-Changer

Unlike Elementary Mathematics (E-Math), which focuses on practical numeracy and applied math, Additional Mathematics introduces students to a new level of abstraction and reasoning. According to the MOE syllabus (MOE A-Math syllabus):

  • Students learn algebraic techniques, trigonometric identities, logarithmic and exponential functions, and calculus (differentiation & integration).
  • A-Math provides the foundation for higher studies in Physics, Chemistry, Economics, Engineering, and Data Science.
  • Many Junior College subject combinations (e.g., H2 Math, H2 Physics) require A-Math as a prerequisite.

Without strong A-Math foundations, students risk struggling later when confronted with JC/Poly technical subjects.

Challenges Students Face in A-Math

Parents often find their children struggling with Additional Mathematics for these reasons:

  1. Weak Algebra Skills — A-Math requires flawless algebra; students with shaky Sec 1–2 basics often fall behind.
  2. Abstract Thinking Gap — Moving from arithmetic to abstract proofs (e.g., trigonometric identities) can be daunting.
  3. Fast-Paced School Lessons — Teachers in competitive schools often cover topics rapidly, leaving weaker students behind.
  4. Application Struggles — Many students can memorise formulas but cannot apply them in novel problem-solving contexts.
  5. Exam Pressure — A-Math exam questions often require multi-step reasoning under tight time limits.

This is where 3-pax small group tuition becomes a powerful solution.

What We Cover in A-Math Tuition

Our curriculum is aligned with the SEAB O-Level Additional Mathematics syllabus (SEAB O-Level A-Math).

Core Topics

  • Algebra & Functions
  • Polynomials, surds, quadratic functions, inequalities.
  • Exponentials & logarithms.
  • Trigonometry
  • Identities & equations.
  • Applications in real-world problems.
  • Calculus

Teaching Philosophy: First Principles + Exam Excellence

At EduKateSG, we teach from first principles rather than rote memorisation. Students don’t just memorise formulas — they learn why they work.

For example:

  • Instead of memorising $\sin^2\theta + \cos^2\theta = 1$, students derive it from the unit circle.
  • Instead of blindly applying the quotient rule, students visualise differentiation as slope of tangent lines.

This ensures students:

  1. Understand deeply (so they can adapt to unfamiliar problems).
  2. Retain knowledge longer (because they know the “why”).
  3. Perform better in exams (by applying knowledge flexibly).
