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.

What is Individuslised Learning?


Before we go into individualised learning, we first examine the conventional methods employed in our educational systems, i.e. those used by our schools, kindergarten, and the normal tuition centers.
Under the conventional method, every child of similar ages are placed in one class.  Here, every child goes through the same materials irrespective whether they are fast learners or slow learners. They spend the same amount of time doing the same problem irrespective whether they understand, whether they are fast or slow learners.  As time goes by, the slow learners will be left behind, not fully comprehending what is being taught.  As for the faster learners, they are forced to slow down their learning progress to follow the average learners.
Now, lets look at the individualised learning methods employed by "Just-Math". Here every child is treated individually based on his/her individual ability. Learning materials are assigned based on the child's current ability in mathematics. If the child is a fast learner, he can progress faster based on his/her ability.  If the child is a slower learner, then he/she can have sufficient time to practice until he can perfect the skills needed for a specific area. This means the individualised learning method is suitable for any circumstance. Everyone can fully benefit from this superior method of delivery.

Why are we more effective compared to more established brands


More established specialised math centers follow a very rigid progression process in the student's study. The student will need to complete all worksheet in a particular level before moving to the next level.
Lets see this effect on a particular student. Say that the student is in form three. During the enrollment assessment, say that this student is seen lacking in skills at the basic addition level. This student will need to go thru from basic addition, working in all worksheets from basic addition with no flexibility to work on other areas at all. He/She will not be allowed to work on other worksheets, say multiplication, so long as he/she has not completed all worksheets leading to multiplication.
In Just-Math, some form of flexibility is given based on assessment of the student incorporating factors like
1) age of student
2) acceptable skills to work on other areas
3) learning attitude of the students
A student may also be allowed to work on multiple areas simultaneously. e.g. working on basic horizontal addition, horizontal subtraction as well as in areas of vertical addition and subtraction if possible. We may also incorporate some areas of multiplication and division simultaneously in this particular case.
Here we fully harness on the power of individualised learning.
