How Does Our Primary Math Tuition Work?
Imagine your child being able to solve complex problem sums and higher-order thinking questions with ease. We help you unleash your child's inner math genius.
At BlueTree Education Learning Centre, our Mathematics curriculum is a comprehensive and well-rounded programme that aligns with the latest MOE syllabus. Our goal is to equip students with a strong foundation in logic and numeracy, as well as problem-solving skills and higher-order thinking. Our learning materials and unique pedagogical strategies will help to engage 21st-century students.
Through our programme, your child will learn important math concepts, effective math heuristics, signature answering techniques (S.O.L.V.E), and how to tackle various question types. From now till the end of PSLE, your child will be well-prepared to achieve academic excellence and reach their full potential.
Key Elements Of Our Primary Math Programme
Effective And Proven Answering Techniques
and Strategies
Recognising Exam Patterns to Achieve Content Mastery and Grasp Key Concepts
Highly Experienced, Dedicated and Caring Team of Professional Teachers
S.O.L.V.E. Technique
❗Secured distinctions for > 4,000 students
❗8 in 10 BlueTree students scored PSLE distinctions (AL1 to AL3)
At our centre, we train students with our signature 4-step answering technique, S.O.L.V.E.—Search for clues, Obtain the evidence, Locate the key, solVE the mystery—to solve questions with a deeper understanding of core topics in math to ensure each answer is to the examination setters’ expectations.
These teaching methods arose from our founders’ deep experience in PSLE as they were both PSLE markers for more than a decade. They realised that many students struggled with problem sums because they did not have a structured approach to answering questions. The A.B.C. technique has helped thousands of students because they are simple to use and effective in getting the questions solved!
Our Primary Math Specialists
Our teachers know exactly what’s expected of students and what skills they need to do well in their next exams.
Our math tutors have at least 3 years of teaching experience in schools and are highly trained in the MOE syllabus. They are also personally taught by our Principal and curriculum writer, Teacher Faith, and are more than qualified to guide any student to help them achieve their desired grades in math.
Under our professional guidance, your child will save plenty of time & hard work from trying to do what 80% of the primary school students are doing—traditional studying practices that are outdated and time-consuming!
