What is MathConcept?
Since 2012, MathConcept has been helping students understand and appreciate mathematics. Our team of elite mathematicians and educators has developed effective courseware and refined teaching approaches to enhance students’ learning experiences.

Why should I enroll my child in MathConcept?
At MathConcept, we believe every child has the potential to excel in mathematics. Our programs are designed to stimulate interest, build confidence, and deepen mathematical knowledge, helping students achieve their academic goals and beyond.
Which age groups do you serve?
MathConcept offers programs for a wide range of academic levels, from preschool to high school. Our courses are tailored to meet the needs of students at every stage of their learning journey.
Does MathConcept follow the Canadian curriculum?
Yes and no depends on the kids’ need. For primary students, MathConcept’s courseware is aligned with the Singapore Math curriculum. But for high school, we offer a wide range of programs that fit the student’s needs for public exams (e.g. the SAT, IGCSE, IBDP, and HKDSE), for the Canadian students, we offer tailored learning plans to meet the final exam needs.
How is MathConcept different from other tutoring programs?
Every MathConcept student begins with a pre-enrollment MathConcept Diagnostic Test to identify their strengths, weaknesses, and learning needs. This allows us to create a personalized learning plan for each student. Unlike traditional tutoring, we focus on individual progress rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, ensuring students learn at their own pace and maximize their potential.
Is MathConcept suitable for students who are struggling or advanced in math?
Absolutely! MathConcept benefits all students, whether they need help catching up, staying ahead, or exploring advanced mathematical concepts. Our professional tutors evaluate each student’s abilities and create a customized plan to address their unique needs, helping them close learning gaps or tackle more challenging material.
What does a typical class look like?
In a typical class, students work on customized worksheets based on their personalized learning plan. Our interactive and supportive environment encourages students to ask questions, clarify doubts, and explore new concepts. Homework is assigned to reinforce learning and ensure mastery of each topic.
How do I track my child’s progress?
MathConcept tutors regularly communicate with parents through phone calls and updates in the MathConcept student handbook. We also conduct timely assessments to monitor your child’s progress and adjust their learning plan as needed.
How often do students attend MathConcept?
Students are recommended to attend classes once or twice a week, with each session lasting one to two hours. Regular attendance ensures consistent progress and reinforcement of concepts.
Why not one-on-one tutoring?
MathConcept’s small-group format allows for frequent one-on-one interaction with the tutor (every 5–7 minutes, or about 10 times per hour). This approach ensures personalised attention while also fostering a collaborative learning environment. During “downtime,” tutors efficiently assist other students, making the most of every lesson.
How qualified are your tutors?
All MathConcept tutors are professionally trained in our unique pedagogy and are skilled at explaining complex mathematical concepts in a relatable way. They are passionate about teaching and creating a fun, engaging learning environment that sparks students’ interest in math.
