ABOUT ME
Hi, my name is Syahiran. I am a private tutor specialising in secondary-level Mathematics and Additional Mathematics, with an honours degree in Computer Science from NUS, School of Computing.
Having more than 5 years of experience in private tutoring, I am confident in helping students maximise their potential in Mathematics and Additional Mathematics.
My background in Computer Science has influenced my teaching style where I leverage technology to help students sharpen their logical reasoning and mathematical problem-solving skills.
The emphasis in my approach is not on blind memorisation, but on building a strong foundation then progressively working towards having a complete understanding of mathematical concepts.
Please feel free to contact me for a consultation and let's see how I can help!
PEDAGOGICAL FRAMEWORK
STAGE 1
Introduction
STAGE 2
Familiarisation
STAGE 3
Application
Students acquire knowledge of each new topic at the macro level. Relevant mathematical apps are incorporated into lessons to supplement their understanding.
For each new concept, we will go through a worked example at the micro level. At this stage, step-by-step guidance is provided for students to gain familiarity and confidence.
After each worked example, students demonstrate understanding of that specific concept by attempting practice questions. When mistakes are made at this stage, any blindspots can be addressed immediately.
STAGE 4
Mastery
STAGE 5
Agility
STAGE 6
Strategy
Mastery of each topic is established only upon successful completion of a topical quiz with no prompting. Reinforcement of concepts will take place as necessary and students will be reassessed till a satisfactory standard is reached.
Modular quizzes expose students to a variety of questions across different topics. This stage is an important intermediary step in letting students strengthen their mental agility and stamina.
Students will sit for mock exams under simulated conditions to prepare for any major exams. At this stage, students are trained to manage their time efficiently and present their solutions as concisely as possible.
