O-LEVEL A. MATH TOPICAL REVISION (JUNE HOLS)

Dear S4 Student,

If you had not done well in your A.Math Mid-Year Exam (obtained C5 or lower), the upcoming June Holidays provides with you with a RARE OPPORTUNITY to REVIEW & RELEARN your A.Math topics, so that you will be much better prepared for your Prelim and O-Level Exams. Not to be missed!!

If you do not do anything about your A.Math now, you may end up with a D7 or lower for your O-Levels, which will restrict your choice of courses in JC or Poly. SO RELEARN YOUR A.MATH TOPICS NOW.

Our REVISION PROGRAMS are conducted by very experienced NIE-Trained tutors/ Ex-Teachers/ Principal Tutors who understand student difficulties in learning each topic.

You can opt to attend ALL the TEN 2.5-hr sessions or just attend the TOPICAL SESSIONS which are relevant to your needs.

Sign up now! Do not miss this golden opportunity to catch-up on your A.Math.

Start Date of 1st lesson: MONDAY 17 JUNE 2019
Time: 10.00 AM – 12.30 PM

Location: Blk 644, Bukit Batok Central, #01-68. S(650644).

Focus: CONCEPTUAL UNDERSTANDING & APPLICATION OF SKILLS

Format: Teaching + Worksheets + Discussions

Fee: $100 per student per 2.5-hr session (minimum 2 students) or $800 for 10 sessions.

Note: For 1-1 lesson, fee is $150 per session.

To register, sms <Student Name><S4AMTRjun> to 97860411.

SEC 3 ADDITIONAL MATH CONSOLIDATION WORKSHOPS 11 NOV – 14 NOV

Consolidation workshops are for students who have performed poorly in their SA2 exams or in certain topics in their exams. These classes are intended for students to “consolidate” what they have learnt and re-learn if necessary. Such students are encouraged to attend these lessons before attending Headstart lessons.

(1) Indices, Surds & Logarithms:     Monday, 11 Nov, 9.30 am – 12.30 pm;  Code: S3MC1.

(2) Roots of Quadratic Equations & Inequalities:   Monday, 11 Nov, 2 pm – 5 pm; Code: S3MC2.

(3) Polynomials & Partial Fractions:     Tuesday, 12 Nov, 9.30 am – 12.30 pm;  Code: S3MC3

(4) The Binomial Theorem:     Tuesday, 12 Nov, 2 pm – 5 pm;  Code: S3MC4.

(5) Trigonometry I:     Wednesday, 13 Nov, 9.30 am – 12.30 pm;  Code: S3MC5.

(6) Trigonometry II:     Thursday, 14 Nov, 9.30 am – 12.30 pm;  Code: S3MC6.

Sec 4 A. Math Reflections 02/02/13 – Higher Derivative

Today I taught them the Higher Derivatives, using displacement, velocity and acceleration as real-life examples. I chose not to introduce the 2nd derivative as a means to test whether a turning point is a maximum or minimum, as I preferred to do that when teaching the application of differentiation in tangents and normals at a point in a curve.

Points to note:

(1) students must not write the 2nd derivative as dy^2/dx^2;

(2) d^2y/dx^2 is not the same as (dy/dx)^2;

(3)  d^2y/dx^2 is the same as f”(x) or f^2(x);

(4) there may be product rule, quotient rule or chain rule involved when finding the higher derivatives.

Sec 4 A. Math Reflections 26/01/13 – Quotient Rule

I introduced Quotient Rule to the class last week so today we continued with it. Quotient Rule is actually very easy to use and should not be replaced by the Product Rule, even though it’s very convenient for students to write a fraction as a product of two terms.

What students find difficult is in simplifying the resulting expression, which often consists of fractions within fractions, with some terms having a square root sign over it. Of course there is a ‘trick’ to get the factorisation done quickly and correctly, but it’s too cumbersome for me to demonstrate here. More importantly, this difficulty that students often face highlights the point that I’ve posted earlier, that Sec 1 and Sec 2 Algebra is VERY IMPORTANT.

For the next lesson, I’ll be going into the Second Derivative as well as Application of Differentiation to curves, tangents and normal. We may be covering the Chain Rule if we have time.
