How The Annexe Project started

Alvin started The Annexe Project in 2008 after his first five students from St Joseph’s Institution — failing both Additional and Elementary Mathematics — all walked out with A1s at the Cambridge O-Levels. Nearly two decades later he still teaches every mathematics class himself: H2 Mathematics at A-Level, Additional and Elementary Mathematics at O-Level, and the Lower Secondary foundation class.

The academy began as a physical centre at Centropod@Changi and now runs entirely online, so that students anywhere in Singapore — and Cambridge candidates overseas — get the same live, small-group lesson without the commute.

How he teaches

While he might have founded The Annexe Project, Alvin is still heavily invested in personally teaching every student. His popularity comes from a vibrant personality with a surprising youthfulness, which lets him crack a joke to slice through any tedium during lessons. His students feel classes are never too large, because he cultivates a close relationship with each of them.

Spending time individually with Alvin after class — often before a major exam — to clarify doubts and examine mathematics problems clearly is not an opportunity any of his students would find rare in the slightest sense. Free consultations outside class hours have been part of the academy’s culture since 2008, alongside structured notes for every topic, a recording of every lecture and homework reviewed weekly.

中文简介

虽然Alvin是The Annexe Project的创始人,他仍然花很多的精力投入在亲自培训学生上面。他之所以如此声名远扬,是因为他充满活力和洋溢着青春的性格,让他可以使枯燥的课程充满欢声笑语。他的学生永远不会觉得班级太大而得不到应有的关注,他会关心学生的生活,对每位学生都很亲切。没有任何一位学生会觉得Alvin在课后单独为他辅导数学难点、或者倾听学生的烦恼一直到很晚是一件让人惊讶的事,因为他就是如此为学生们奉献着。
