In our modern society, math skills have become more critical than ever before. Your A-Level H2 mathematics grades are fundamental for your future career prospects, so you must ace it to get the best possible chance of success.
However, many H2 students find math extremely hard to comprehend due to its rigorous syllabus and paper patterns. Math, especially at A-Levels, can be challenging to master on your own. That’s why it pays off to find a high-quality math tutor as soon as possible.
Let’s look into the reasons how a tuition class can benefit students.
Math is HARD
Math is a language that is used in virtually every field of human endeavor. Yet, countless students find it difficult.
Many factors contribute as to why this happens.
Math is a broad topic, so it’s easy to get lost in the fundamentals. Students don’t focus on the subject basics but tend to jump directly into dense topics. Instead, they initially need to understand the basics and then gradually build up that foundation.
Too often, we see students who have weak basics start A-level math only to discover the learning gap is too overwhelming for them to continue the subject.
In such a scenario, a JC math tuition or O-Level Additional Math tuition as well as O-Level Elementary Math tuition at the Annexe Project can come in handy. We hold weekly tuition classes where tutors work with students to help improve their math fundamentals.
Focused Feedback and Attention
Feedback is an essential part of student development. It helps students refine their work and reach their full potential. Feedback also has a positive impact on educators, enabling them to continually grow as professionals.
The most effective feedback is individualized, meaning it supports each student’s learning needs and capabilities.
A good math teacher will help their students in understanding the material and optimizing their learning style. This is important because we all learn differently and have varying strengths and weaknesses. The teacher will aim to cement your strengths and rectify your shortcomings.
However, as the number of students exponentially increases in math classes in Singapore, teachers are often unable to provide this kind of customized feedback. This problem makes learning in a classroom environment difficult for many students. This large number of students also prevents shy, confused students from raising their queries to the teacher.
Good math tuition centers quickly fix these problems by arranging small class sizes where tutors establish one-to-one connections with students and help them improve academically. Furthermore, such classes have a warm and comfortable environment that allows students to be more open and ask questions regarding confusing mathematical concepts.
Boost Grades
The importance of top-notch grades cannot be understated in our education system. From qualifying for a top university program to simply boosting your self-confidence, academic grades determine it all.
Good grades result in better job prospects and a brighter future, whereas poor grades can have the opposite effect.
If you have become a victim of poor grades, a tuition class can be your most valuable investment.
A good math tutor can help you understand the subject material, work on more positive study habits, and stay on top of deadlines.
And the best thing of all, a tutor can help you improve your grades.
Last year, at The Annexe Project, 93 percent of students scored at least an A or a B in A-level math.
Confidence Booster
Have you ever felt like you are not smart enough? Or that you can never excel academically? If so, you are not alone. Many students experience such negative thoughts, and it can be challenging to escape this thought process.
To tackle this issue, you need to instill “academic confidence” in yourself.
But you may wonder, what is this “academic confidence?”
In short, this is the belief that one has what it takes to succeed academically. Academic confidence is a crucial contributor to academic success, and we know this because we’ve observed an enormous boost in scores when students feel more confident about their abilities.
The easiest way to implement this confidence in your personality is by learning in a comfortable environment where mistakes are not despised but appreciated. The more mistakes you will make, the more you’ll improve and inch towards perfection.
Tuition classes do a phenomenal job of producing such an enriching environment. Tutors regularly promote healthy class discussions that encourage students to talk through their mistakes and rectify them.
Such strategies not only improve a student academically but also uplift their morale and confidence.
Finding The Right Tutor
If you’re looking to find a good tutor, you might want to ask yourself a few questions.
First, how much time are you willing to spend on the search?
Are there specific qualities that you want in your tutor?
Does budget matter?
Once you know what values are most important for you, only then can you find the right fit for you.
