Is Your Child Struggling With Maths?

Gaps in Maths carry forward: a shaky grasp of fractions resurfaces in algebra, and weak algebra makes A-Math and calculus much harder. If your child loses marks on problem sums, makes slips under time pressure, or stalls at the first line of a longer question, a Maths tutor can find the topic behind it, reteach it step by step and give steady practice until the method sticks.

Common Challenges Maths Students Face

Problem Sums and Word Problems

Turning a long question into the right steps, from PSLE models to real-world SEC questions.

Algebraic Manipulation

Expanding, factorising and changing the subject of a formula, which almost every later topic relies on.

Careless Mistakes Under Time Pressure

Copying errors, wrong signs and rounding slips cost marks even when the method is right.

Showing Clear Working

SEAB warns that leaving out essential working loses marks, so the method has to be set out on paper.

The Jump to A-Math and H2 Maths

Surds, logarithms, trigonometric identities and calculus arrive quickly and build on one another.

Geometry and Trigonometry

Angle properties, similar triangles and bearings, where drawing the right diagram is half the work.

How Our Online Maths Tutors Help

Worked Examples on a Whiteboard

The tutor writes out each step on a shared whiteboard, then your child tries a similar question while the tutor watches.

Methods for Problem Sums

Models, listing and working backwards at Primary, and forming equations from words at Secondary.

Fixing Earlier Gaps First

Lessons go back to the topic causing the trouble, such as fractions or indices, before moving on.

Calculator and Non-Calculator Practice

PSLE Paper 1 does not allow calculators, while H1 and H2 Maths papers expect a graphing calculator, so lessons practise both.

Timed Papers Before Exams

Full and part papers under time limits in the weeks before school exams, so speed and accuracy hold up.

Teaching to Your Child's Course

G1, G2 or G3 Maths, A-Math, H1 or H2, IB AA or AI, or IGCSE Core or Extended.

One-to-One or Small-Group Maths Lessons

One-to-one lessons suit a child who needs to fix particular topics at their own pace. Small groups have up to 4 students at the same level on the same syllabus, such as four Sec 3 students taking G3 A-Math. Not sure which? Choose any class size and we'll suggest whichever fits your preferred times first.

How Online Maths Lessons Work

Lessons are live on Zoom with cameras on, usually 1.5 or 2 hours at the same time each week. The tutor writes out working, sketches graphs and draws diagrams on a shared screen or digital whiteboard, and your child solves questions while the tutor checks each line.

Frequently Asked Questions About Online Maths Tuition

Thinking of Maths Tuition?

Why Does My Child Struggle With Maths?

Often a gap in an earlier topic, such as fractions or algebra, is resurfacing in new work. Problem sums that need several planned steps, and slips made under time pressure, are the other common causes.

How Do I Know If My Child Needs a Maths Tutor?

Watch for test marks dropping, homework taking far longer than it should, or your child getting stuck at the first step of longer questions.

What Is the Difference Between E-Math and A-Math?

E-Math is the Mathematics syllabus every Secondary student takes, at G1, G2 or G3. A-Math (Additional Mathematics) is an upper secondary elective at G2 or G3 that adds topics such as surds, trigonometric identities and calculus, and G3 A-Math prepares students for H2 Maths.

What Is the Difference Between H1 and H2 Maths?

H2 Mathematics covers pure maths and statistics in depth over two 3-hour papers, for university courses such as engineering and the sciences. H1 Mathematics has one 3-hour paper aimed at business and the social sciences, and suits students who did not take A-Math.

When Should My Child Start Maths Tuition?

Many families start at a step up, such as P5, Sec 1, the start of A-Math in upper secondary, or JC1. Starting before marks fall leaves time to fix gaps calmly.

Getting a Tutor

How Do I Request an Online Maths Tutor?

Fill in the free form above with your child's level, class size and preferred lesson times. We aim to get back to you on WhatsApp within one working day, and your child starts with a trial lesson.

Who Are Your Maths Tutors?

Part-time and full-time tutors, current and former school teachers, and undergraduates, each screened for their qualifications, results and teaching experience.

Can You Find a Tutor for My Child's Exact Maths Course?

Yes. Tell us the level and course, such as G2 Maths, G3 A-Math, H2 Maths or IB AI SL, and we'll match a tutor who teaches it.

Can One Tutor Teach Both E-Math and A-Math?

Often, yes. Mention both in your request and we'll look for one tutor for both where possible.

Lessons

How Are Maths Lessons Taught Online?

Live on Zoom with cameras on. The tutor writes the working on a shared screen or digital whiteboard, and your child can stop the tutor to ask about any step.

How Long Are Maths Lessons?

Usually 1.5 or 2 hours, at the same time each week.

What Does My Child Need for an Online Maths Lesson?

A laptop, desktop or tablet with a camera, plus paper, a pen and a calculator. Keep Zoom updated, and if the connection drops, rejoin the same meeting link.

What If My Child Misses a Lesson?

Let the tutor know early; you have a direct line to them. If your child misses a group lesson, the tutor can usually share the class recording.
