What type of student does well with Singapore math?
  • Students who like conceptual and creative problem-solving.
  • Students who enjoy a balance of instruction and independent thinking.
  • Students who are visually or logically inclined.

Most students have the potential to do well with Singapore math if they start early and are guided with dedicated instruction (meaning by educators who have taken the time to learn the content and who are willing to teach with fidelity).

How is Singapore math different from the way math is widely taught in the U.S.?

In typical U.S. math programs, students get a worked example, then solve problems that very closely follow that example, repeating all the same steps with different numbers. In Singapore math, students must think through concepts and apply them in new ways from the very start. Since they can’t rely on simple replication, students are pushed to greater engagement and broader thinking. In U.S. math programs, concepts and skills are more compartmentalized within and across grade levels than in Singapore math, where a strong sense of connectivity to past learning is woven throughout. Unique Singapore math methods, such as number bonds and bar modeling, also set Singapore math apart from typical U.S. math pedagogical styles.

What grade level is right for my student? Do you have placement tests?

We offer free placement tests. If you're new to Singapore math, we highly recommend giving your student a placement test to be sure they start at the appropriate level.
