What Just-Math can do for your child

ESSENTIAL FEATURES OF "Just-Math"

1) Individualised
Each individual student learns based on his / her own ability and progress at their own pace.
Learning Plans are designed specificially for the individual's circumstances.
Children as young as 4 years of age can commence. It is especially beneficial to start a child young. The younger your child starts, the faster your child can achieve the "advance learning" mode.

2) Study At Your Own Pace
If you can learn fast, you progress based on your ability.
If you learn slower, you may stay back to strengthen your area of weakness.
This way no students will be left behind not mastering any essential area(s)


3) Flexible Learning Time Table
Come to class based on your own availability so long as it falls within the centre's opening days and time.
Siblings of different age can also attend classes at the same time.


4) Master The Essential Areas of Study
Important areas of studies are emphasised to strengthen the overall math ability of students


5) We specialised only in Mathematics
This means your child gets the best in learning mathematics here.
Being specialised, we concerntrate on delivering, research, modification and updates of learning materials in mathematics only.


6) We are different from normal tuition centres
In a normal tuition class environment, every child goes through a certain area of learning designed for classroom condition. Every child, whether they are mathematically strong or weak, spent the same amount of time and practice in these areas. As a result, stronger students are forced to wait for weaker students. At the same time, slower students will have to play the unending "catching-up" with stronger students, resulting in non mastery of important areas.


As the class progresses, stronger students are held back and weaker students are not given the opportunity to familiarise, practice and master the needed skills. The most disheartening are the weaker students. As the class progresses, they become weaker and weaker, thus losing interest in mathematics.

The above problem is addressed using the unique "indivudualised learning" method adopted by "Just-Math"

7) Systematic Learning Program
Learning program are specially tailored to facilitate learning.
You are introduced to the basic concepts first, thereafter you get lots of practice to refine your skills leading to mastery.


8) Off Site Service
If you have more than 5 students and can provide a suitable place to conduct classes (e.g. community halls), arrangement can be made for house calls. This service is only available in Penang.

A You Tube clip showing the ability of a student perform addition.

The video below shows how a standard one student who has been with "Just-Math" for 6 months is able to perform calculation of adding 2,3,4,5 & 6 with ease. This particular student had difficulties in simple addition prior to joining "Just-Math".

Developing skills for Higher Level Math

It takes an accumulation of various skills in mathematics to be able to work on high school math materials, like in calculus. These skills are build up from the fundamental of mathematics (from addition, subtraction, multiplication, division), handling fractions, expansion of expression, factorization, algebra, etc. If students are lacking in any of these skills, it would be very difficult and time consuming for them to complete the task. These fundamental skills takes time and effort to master.

At "Just-Math" we give the students the correct materials and the required time to master all the relevant skills required in learning higher school maths.

Take a look at the question below. The skills required are numerous and a student will be able to acquire and master these skills at our math center.

What it takes to be good in mathematics

A very Happy New Year to all parents and students. Thank you for continuing your trust in "Just-Math" into year 2012.

Today, the mother of a form 3 student approached me to inform that her child is not too good in mathematics. She hoped that "Just-Math" could help her child improve in mathematics.

I honestly told the mother that whether the child could improve in her mathematics or not is very much dependent on the child herself. If she is willing to put in sufficient effort, with the help of the materials provided by "Just-Math", and with the guidance of the instructor in "Just-Math", she should be able to improve in due time. The pace of progress depends very much on the student herself. The more effort put in, the better will be the progress.

I gave her some specially prepared worksheet to test her on math ability. Sadly, she face a lot of difficulties in subtraction ( like 23-17, 25-8, 35-17, ....). Most of the time, she needs to use her finger to perform the subtraction. When she started to work on multiplication, I also noticed that she is not able to memorize the multiplication table and find it extremely difficult to complete the worksheet on 3 digit x 3 digit multiplication.

Remember, it takes (1) effort, most importantly, (2) the right materials, and (3) the right guidance to excel in mathematics.

Does the above situation happens to your child? To me this is a very common situation happening to our students. Parents must take measures to address this situation.

Under acceptable standards, a student finishing standard six education should be able to easily perform the four operation of mathematics, i.e. addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. These skills are needed to help them in furthering their calculation ability in secondary and higher education.

At "Just-Math" we will be able to prepare your child adequately in meeting the challenges in secondary and higher school mathematics.
