PSLE MATH WORKSHOP FOR PARENTS – How to solve Speed, Rate, Area & Perimeter problems

The parents from my first workshop, PSLE MATH WORKSHOP FOR PARENTS & STUDENTS – How to solve difficult problem sums using the Storyline-Equation Method, have asked for another workshop on Labour Day to learn the best methods to solve problems involving Speed, Rate, Area and Perimeter of Triangles, 4-sided figures and Circles. I’m deeply encouraged by their eagerness to learn so that they can help their own children.

Details are as follows.

Date: Friday, 1 May 2015

Time:  9.15 am – 12.15pm

Fee$60 per participant (if one person registering), $50 per participant for a family of two, $40 per participant for a family of three or more.

MASTERING ALGEBRA March Holiday Workshop

You’ll never begin to be good in Math at the secondary level and beyond until you have mastered  THREE fundamental topics: Arithmetic of Negative Numbers, Indices and Algebra. Even students who had obtained A or A* in PSLE Math find themselves doing badly in Math at the upper secondary level if they have not perfected their skills in handling these three topics while in Sec 1 or Sec 2. This course is intended to help such students.

Level/Subject:  Secondary Arithmetic, Indices & Algebra

Dates:  Mon 16/3, Tue 17/3, and Wed 18/3 (three 3 hr sessions)

Who should attend:

(1) Sec 1 and Sec 2 students who wish to learn all the Algebraic skills in advance;

(2) Sec 3 to JC2 as well as Polytechnic students who have been getting low scores for Math exams largely due to poor handling of algebraic expressions.

(12) Solving problems involving quadratic equations.

Focus: CONCEPTUAL UNDERSTANDING

Format: Teaching + Worksheets + Discussions

Fee: Only $240 for all 3 sessions (inclusive of materials & refreshments)
