Course Overview

This summer course is taught by Harold, an experienced in-service math teacher at a Singapore international school, with thorough knowledge of the local international school math curriculum and assessment standards. The course offers two tracks: Bridge (incoming G6-G7) and Intensive (incoming G8-G10). The Bridge track is designed for the critical transition from arithmetic to abstract algebraic thinking. It covers number theory, algebra foundations, in-depth derivation of exponent laws, introductory factorisation, and extends to linear functions, modelling, geometric reasoning, and basic trigonometry, ensuring a smooth mathematical transition into middle school. The Intensive track targets students entering or currently in G8-G10, balancing advance learning with deep reinforcement of key concepts. The course focuses on quadratic equations, functions and their graphical applications, and higher-degree polynomials, combining logical derivation with graphical thinking to help students break through algebra bottlenecks.

Course Highlights

Taught by an In-service Singapore International School Teacher: Seamlessly aligned with school math curriculum and core assessment areas
Bridge and Deep Extension Combined: Bridge track supports the arithmetic-to-algebra transition, Intensive track balances advance learning with reinforcement of key challenges
Emphasis on Deep Derivation: Students learn the why behind the what, building solid logical reasoning and mathematical modelling skills
Focused Summer Intensive: Targeted elimination of weak spots in preparation for a confident start to the new school year

Harold

Harold is an experienced in-service math teacher at a Singapore international school, with thorough knowledge of the local international school math curriculum and assessment standards. He excels at transforming abstract mathematical concepts into clear, logical derivation processes, helping students build systematic mathematical thinking frameworks. His teaching philosophy emphasises understanding the 'why' behind every concept, guiding students to truly grasp mathematical principles through deep derivation.

Level Guide

G6-G7 Bridge

For students entering G6-G7. A critical bridge course from arithmetic to algebraic thinking, covering number theory, algebra foundations, exponent law derivation, introductory factorisation, linear functions, modelling, geometric reasoning, and basic trigonometry.

G8-G10 Intensive

For students entering or currently in G8-G10. Balances advance learning with deep reinforcement, focusing on quadratic equations, functions and their graphical applications, and higher-degree polynomials to break through algebra bottlenecks.

Learning Objectives

Master Core Algebra Foundations: Independently derive exponent laws and perform factorisation (Bridge), or fluently apply multiple methods for solving quadratic equations (Intensive)
Understand Functions and Graphical Applications: Use function graphs for basic modelling and problem solving (Bridge), or precisely plot and analyse function graphs in applied contexts (Intensive)
Build Geometric Reasoning and Logical Frameworks: Grasp basic trigonometric concepts (Bridge), or master higher-degree polynomial operations and graphical characteristics (Intensive)
Develop Abstract Logical Thinking and Independent Derivation Skills: Fully adapt to the pace and rigour of Singapore international school mathematics
