The Singapore PSLE exam is a key point in Singapore’s streaming system. Many parents start to feel anxious in the first grade, thinking that the first grade of primary school is the starting point of the PSLE exam sprint, so they pay more attention to their children’s learning of various subjects. Mathematics is an important subject, and some parents will have such questions: Why are the children’s other subjects good, but the math score is not as good as others? Is it because the children lack learning ability?

In fact, this is not because the children are lack of ability of learning. Compared with other subjects, mathematics is more inclined to the understanding and application of abstract characters, and children at the current stage do not have enough ability to understand abstract symbols and cannot directly obtain the corresponding logical relationship from numbers. Although teachers will teach in class based on CPA (Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract) learning method, abstract shapes will still be the main focus in homework and exams. Therefore, even if children understand in class, they will feel confused and distressed when facing homework when they return home.

Secondly, the knowledge of mathematics are closely linked. If children are not proficient in addition and subtraction, it will directly affect the learning of multiplication and division. Especially the Singapore mathematics is famous for its “spiral upward”. Once a part of this link is weak, subsequent learning is prone to frustration. If kids cannot enjoy the joy of success in learning, it is naturally difficult to generate interest in this subject, which resulting in a vicious cycle. Therefore, laying a foundation at the beginning of mathematics learning will be more advantageous for subsequent learning and ability improvement.

However, the assistances parents can provide in such situations is usually limited: 1) in terms of time and energy, it is difficult for parents to have enough time to analyze their children’s homework in detail, so they cannot find where their children are weak and find the solutions; 2) the questions in primary school courses are too simple for parents. So parents can usually give answers quickly, but fail to make their children understand their own thinking. Therefore, many parents are faced with the problem of repeatedly explaining the questions many times, but the children are still unable to think and digest them independently. It leads to the result that parents lose patience, while the children are more afraid and dread contact with mathematics.

Facing to this dilemma, Sinobus’s online one-on-one math tutoring provide a satisfactory answer to many of parents. Sinobus teachers have rich teaching experience and are proficient in dealing with all problems that arise in children’s learning process in primary school. At the same time, teachers have enough time and patience to analyze the weaknesses of children in math problem solving, and carry out targeted and systematic basic consolidation and thinking ability enhancement. During classroom learning, teachers will not only use interesting courseware and games to help children understand classroom knowledge, but also assign homework for the corresponding stage after class to help children consolidate knowledge points. When learning new knowledge points, teachers will also link previously learned knowledge points to allow children to build a basic logical chain.

In addition to providing students with learning methods and assisting in the absorption of knowledge points, as an online one-to-one tutoring institution, Sinobus can greatly reduce the inconvenience of commuting and is more convenient for parents and children to arrange their time compared to offline large classes or one-to-many tutoring courses. We will arrange courses according to students’ free time. As long as there is a computer or mobile phone, a class can be completed. The classroom process is transparent, and parents can also accompany the class or view the live broadcast video after class to intuitively understand their children’s classroom learning performance and learning results.

For most students, learning mathematics is relatively difficult. The difficulty lies not only in the application of formulas, but also in the understanding the numerical changes, and the transformation of thinking when facing changes in question types in exams. For children who are new to mathematics, if there is no proper guidance, it is easy to resist and hate mathematics, thus forming a vicious circle.

Therefore, Sinobus has adopted a variety of learning methods, with CPA (Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract) as the core, to help students build basic mathematical concepts and thinking from the concrete stage to the abstract stage, and to attract students’ attention with interesting courseware and games to increase their attention to the class. During this period, the teacher will continue to throw in questions to guide students to actively think about mathematical changes.

In addition, Sinobus takes advantage of online courses to break through time and space constraints and alleviate students’ resistance to classes due to commuting. At the same time, because it is one-on-one teaching, it can highly take care of students’ needs. For students with weak modeling ability and difficulty understanding application problems, teachers will adopt the Singapore CPA teaching method to strengthen reading comprehension ability and train modeling thinking in combination with life-related problems; and for students with average math skills, whose scores are stable but difficult to improve further, teachers will give priority to consolidating the knowledge system, checking for omissions, and coordinating with teachers’ efficient problem-solving skills, estimation, clever calculation, fast calculation, quick summary of secondary formulas and rules, breakthroughs in key and difficult topics, and quickly breaking through the upper limit of grades.

It can be said that Sinobus’s one-on-one online mathematics tutoring considers students’ needs from many aspects and angles, analyzes weaknesses in the learning process and provides academic support, so that students can learn with skills, methods and light burden, and truly feel the charm of mathematics.

对于大部分学生和家长来说，数学向来是一门“高深莫测”的学科。大多数孩子只能通过无尽的题海战术来强化自己对公式的记忆，但稍有懈怠就容易把知识点抛之脑后，所以这样的学习方法其实效率并不显著，而且也会让学生产生厌恶情绪。

Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract，简称CPA，是新加坡数学在全球领先的核心秘诀，尤其适用于小学阶段儿童认知发展规律。因为在6-12岁的年龄阶段，小朋友还未形成完整的逻辑体系，对抽象符号的思维能力有限，却拥有具体认知和感情记忆的能力。而CPA教学方法就是通过从具体教学应用开始，逐步带领孩子学会抽象符号的认知和思维方式。

• 具体阶段：用“触觉记忆”替代“机械记忆”

在这个阶段，老师会通过实物操作，建立数学概念的物理感知，使用教具（积木、计数器、量杯、硬币等）模拟数学问题，引导孩子用口语表达操作过程，加深认知和记忆，同时课堂也富有趣味性，缓解孩子对数学学习的抵抗情绪和焦虑。这个阶段老师会反复多次地使用教具操作，直至孩子能够预测结果，形成一定的思维方式。

这个阶段是为了让孩子消除接触数学时对抽象概念的恐惧，让学生知道数学也是可以触摸的实体。通过老师的演示和操作，理解“数”的分解、组合和守恒。

• 形象化：利用图形解题

在学生度过具体阶段后，老师会将实物操作转化为图形符号，使用标准化的图形来表示数学关系，从而开始搭建具体到抽象思维的桥梁。这一步有助于孩子应对稍复杂的数量关系，通过分割、合并和比较图形，直观地发现阶梯路径。

这个阶段旨在让图形跨越文字理解力差异，让孩子能够从读题转变到图形，进而转换解题思维，找到题目答案。

• 抽象化：用符号推理

在最后这步，老师需要教导学生从图形过渡到数字和公式，实现完全符号化的运算。在初期时仍会允许学生使用“图+算式”混合表达，再逐步减少图形依赖。同样的，也可以用图形和抽象计算结果进行比对和相互验证，确保逻辑一致性，学生和家长也无需担心阶段转变后无法适应的情况。

最终的步骤要求从图形到符号的完整推导，减少跳步骤导致的粗心和错误。

CPA学习方法针对学生的数学学习是更有效且更容易接受的，所以Sinobus的线上数学辅导课程也以此为核心来展开教学课程。Sinobus的线上数学辅导课堂中，老师会通过丰富有趣的课件，生动形象地给小朋友展示数字的变化，直观且具备趣味性地教学。

以CPA学习法为基础的同时，Sinobus更是发挥线上一对一辅导的优势。老师在线上课程中会根据小朋友的反应和表现进行调整，如果有出现学生无法理解和吸收的情况，老师会适当地调整课程节奏，确保学生当前阶段已经巩固后再开展下阶段的学习。

Sinobus的课堂上老师通过情景设置，从生活入手引领小朋友在趣味学习中进行头脑风暴，课后也会布置对应的习题作业，从而巩固学生知识点的吸收和运用。练习总结、举一反三，继而再运用回生活之中，解决生活中会遇到的近似问题。

CPA学习法结合线上辅导的优势，Sinobus致力于给学生舒适有效的学习空间，让小朋友不再畏惧数学，从图形开始领会数学的魅力，更主动更愿意地投入学习之中。这种教学方法是有效果且长期受益，让小朋友不仅能够应对考试，更能发现生活中处处是数学。

选择 SinoBus 一对一定制化线上补习，就是为孩子选择一个更加光明的数学学习未来。让我们携手共进，助力孩子在数学学习中腾飞，开启属于他们的辉煌篇章！现在就为孩子预约试听课，体验 SinoBus 的独特魅力吧！
