The most common subject taken up in JC, H2 Math is a pre-requisite to all courses in university.

It is a build-on to Secondary A Maths and consists of two main areas covered: Pure Maths and Statistics.

In Pure Maths, the sections covered are Functions and Graphs, Sequences and Series, Differentiation and Integration, Vectors, and Complex Numbers.

In Statistics, the sections covered are Permutations and Combinations, Probability, Discrete Random Variables, Binomial distribution, Normal distribution, Hypothesis Testing, and Correlation and Regression.

JC H2 math covers a wider range of topics than secondary school math and while some of the topics may be similar, there still lie many differences in the content covered. Even with overlapping topics, the content covered in H2 math is more in-depth and requires advanced analytical and critical thinking skills which can be a concern for students that are newly tackling H2 math.

What is H2 Math?

Mathematics at the A-Level

There are four syllabuses to cater to the different needs, interests, and abilities of students:

▪ H1 Mathematics;

▪ H2 Mathematics;

▪ H2 Further Mathematics; and

▪ H3 Mathematics.

H2 Mathematics is designed to prepare students for a range of university courses, including mathematics, sciences, and related courses, where a good foundation in mathematics is required. It develops mathematical thinking and reasoning skills that are essential for further learning of mathematics.

Through the applications of mathematics, students also develop an appreciation of mathematics and its connections to other disciplines and to the real world.

Assumed knowledge: O-Level Additional Mathematics.

Learning mathematics at the A-Level provides students, regardless of the intended course of study at the university, with a useful set of tools and problem-solving skills. It also exposes students to a way of thinking that complements other ways of thinking developed through other disciplines.

Mathematics Curriculum Framework

The central focus of the mathematics curriculum is the development of mathematical problem-solving competency. Supporting this focus are five interrelated components – concepts, skills, processes, metacognition, and attitudes. The framework sets the direction for and provides guidance in the teaching, learning, and assessment of mathematics.

Why Get H2 Math Tuition in JC?

There is a shift in how math is taught from high school to JC from classroom-based learning to lecture-based learning.

Students are unable to ask as many questions as they would like to, and teachers are unable to give them individual attention. Some students may find it difficult to cope with this new learning style and pace in such an environment.

Additionally, JC students are exposed to over 20 formulae and concepts, which is significantly more than what there were taught in secondary school.

H2 Math content, which mostly consists of pure mathematics and statistical analysis, demands students to be highly familiar with all the problems that may be posed.

JC students unquestionably require some additional support in order to improve their academic performance. When it comes to A-levels education, tuition is essential. Even after two years of intense study, many JC students in Singapore are still unable to ace their A-level examinations.

We advise JC students to enroll in H2 Math Tuition classes as a complement to this.

H2 Math Tuition with New Dawn Learning Studio

In our JC Maths tuition classes, our objective is to address the difficulties commonly encountered by students. Thereby, every lesson is well-structured and delivered systematically to meet the learning needs of the students.

Struggling to keep pace with the subjects in school in J1? Or feeling pressed for time and do not know where to begin when it comes to revision in J2?

Here is some good news – you are not alone. Over the years, there have been plenty of others like you, but with the right external help and support, they managed to overcome the challenges to ace their A ‘Levels. Yes, we are talking about tuition here.

“But how do I pick the right tuition centre?”, is a common question that students new to seeking external help might ask.

Here is a helpful guide of some important criteria that many students and even parents look out for to help you along.

Tutor Credentials

A good tutor is vital to the learning experience that a student can get out of tuition classes. And as such, it is key to seek out tutors with relevant, and specialized academic backgrounds and teaching experience.

For instance, at New Dawn Learning Studio, our tutors are specialized in specific subjects – like Maths, Physics, and Chemistry – have taught the O to A’ Level’s curriculum for the past 14 years.

Why are specialization and experience essential? Tutors who have taught the same subject for over several years would be more equipped with the knowledge of past year papers and well-honed teaching techniques.

However, most practically, apart from credentials, it is also essential that the teaching style is something that matches well with your learning style. So, make sure you go down for a trial session to experience it first-hand.

Teaching Materials

Apart from the tutor’s teaching abilities and style, another key aspect to consider would be the teaching materials.

Do you need to take down your own notes? Are there detailed notes with breakdowns of each topic prepared for you? Are there specially curated practice questions to help you hone your understanding of the concepts taught in class?

As with tutor credentials, the quality of teaching materials differs from one tuition centre to another – so do request to take a look at a sample of their teaching materials to see if it suits you.

Location

Given how regularly you will need to attend tuition classes (at least once a week), a convenient or easy to get to location is simply a practical consideration.

Finding one located near an MRT station, near your home or school, can be helpful in your weekly journey to class.

Where possible, call ahead to book a tour of the centre (most will allow that!) so you can head down yourself to take a look.

Affordability

Keep in mind that tuition is an additional expense for your parents. Depending on how many subjects you may require additional help in, the costs could add up.

Some ways to keep tuition affordable include:

Opting for group tuition instead of one-to-one tuition
Choosing the subject that you are the weakest to start working on instead of going for multiple subjects.
Attending quarterly review workshops provided by tuition centres as a start

Important Tip: Make sure you clarify the fee structure and ensure there are no hidden costs!

Learning Environment

If you are already not keeping pace in school, learning in an environment set up just like school is not going to help. Instead, look out for an environment that best suit your learning needs.

Want to succeed? Make sure you look for a tuition centre that can provide you with the right and conducive learning environment.

At New Dawn Learning Studio, we have a 4-prong strategy to help our students enhance their learning:

Detailed topical breakdown in specially curated lecture notes with step-by-step examples
Tutorials to practice and refine the understanding of topics reviewed in class.
Opportunities for consultations to clarify any questions
Helpful summary sheets for more effective revision

Feeling uncertain? Our recommendation is to head down for a trial class to get first-hand experience on how classes are conducted and determine if it works for you.

Track Record and Testimonials of Past Graduates

Last but not least, a clear indication of whether the tuition centre has been effective in helping your peers ace their A’ Levels is to take a look at their track record of past graduates.

Apart from just results, it is also helpful to review the testimonials of past graduates to understand how exactly the tuition centre has been helpful in their learning journey.

Here are some excerpts from ours:

The summary and formula sheets provided were super helpful when I was doing last-minute revisions for my O levels.
The environment is very cosy and homey as they have spaces where students can rest, relax and study.
Tutors made many concepts much easier to understand and remember.

Choosing the Right A’ Levels Tuition Centre for Yourself

Everyone has different learning styles, so do not be surprised if the best tuition center for your friend in school may not be the one for you.

Do yourself a favor and do some homework (pun intended!) by considering the above-mentioned factors and shortlist some tuition centers that would work well for your own needs.
