Dear Parents,
- Is your child having problem with Maths?
- He didn’t improve despite having regular tuition?
- His Maths marks get lower and lower, year after year?
- He does not understand the Maths lessons given by his teachers and tutors?
- He has lost interest in Maths and his other subjects are also affected?
- He has lost his confidence and self-esteem?
Our Explanation…
Maths is a logical subject.
It has to be learnt logically, i.e. step-by-step, just like building a brick wall.
A brick wall is built brick by brick and one layer on top of another.
What happens if…
Some of the bricks at the lower layers of the brick wall are not laid or missing?
It will be impossible to lay any bricks on top of these gaps.
Imagine A Brick Wall With Missing Bricks...
Likewise, if basic or past Maths topics/concepts are not learnt or understood, it will be very difficult to continue to learn or to understand related advanced topics/concepts.
In the subsequent years, if more new Maths topics/concepts are not learnt or understood, the gaps on the brick wall will inevitably widen and marks will get lower and lower.
If these gaps are not closed up quickly, your child will eventually lose interest in Maths and also his confidence and self-esteem.
Worse still, his entire education will also be badly affected.
WHAT CONTRIBUTE TO THE FORMATION OF GAPS ON THE STUDENTS’ BRICK WALLS?
- Teachers are unable to give individual attention to students because a class size of 40 students is too big.
- Teachers do not have enough time to repeat lessons until all the students understand them.
- Pupils are too embarrassed to raise their hands to ask their teachers to repeat lessons because of peer pressure.
- Students missed lessons because of illness or other reasons.
- Distraction and lack of concentration because of fatigue due to long hours in school.
Do not delay in getting your child’s brick wall repaired or rebuilt!
