Maths for life
MATHS skills are crucial to a child’s success both at school and in everyday life. In today’s technology-driven society, greater demands have been placed on individuals to interpret and use mathematics to make sense of information and complex situations.
The Mathlink team has been building a prestigious reputation in the newly recognised area of holistic practices that target each child’s strength and his or her potential.
Mathlink realises that while parents can usually find time to read a story to their children, thereby instilling a love for literature, they are often at a loss when it comes to instiling love and appreciation for mathematics.
Therefore, it is the aim of Mathlink to help parents draw out the love of mathematics in their children through stimulating and interesting brain teasers that the centre has developed and aggregated with international partners.
The Mathlink Malaysia programme adopts a child-centred approach. This means heavy emphasis is placed on child development in every aspect of the programme.
The Mathlink programme makes use of specifically designed maths games, puzzles, maths bingo, riddles and chess to tap into areas of the brain. Instead of employing the traditional rote methods in teaching, these activities make it easier for students to learn maths skills by making the process enjoyable.
The programme is also integrated with the Ho Math and Chess programme (originated in Canada) that makes learning basic and abstract maths fun.
This integrated programme instils a desire to solve equations and incorporate the principles of maths into a fun learning experience.
Mathlink centres offer a comprehensive maths programme for the international, private and public school student in Malaysia for children as young as three years old up to Grade Eight (around 14 years old).
Mathlink, together with Ho Math and Chess, has been classroom tested and proven to effectively: Improve maths proficiency Develop problem-solving ability Boost brainpower Improve memory Nurture foresight through chess
The programme also incorporates elements that enable the team to systematically track each child’s progress in the learning journey.
Interested parents can bring their child to the centre for a fun trial experience.
