5分钟自测：你的孩子是否需要Add-Math补习

(Read this article in English)

眼看着这两年是IGCSE考试的关键，为了帮助孩子顺利达到理想学校要求的录取标准，不少家长开始为孩子的各科成绩而担忧。尤其是打算走理科道路的孩子，Add-Math成绩至关重要。

“孩子明明上课听得懂，为什么考试成绩就是上不去？”

“孩子经常算错、做题卡者、成绩徘徊不前，需不需要找补习？”

这篇文章将带你深入了解孩子在学习Add Maths的哪一个阶段，并提供针对性的解决方案。

学习Add Maths时最常见的三个阶段

每个孩子在学习Add Maths时，都会经历不同的阶段。以下我们将详细分析这三个阶段，并提供相应的解决方法。

第一阶段： 孩子经常算错吗？运算符号是不是总是搞混？

• 常见问题： 

  • 运算速度慢

  • 符号混淆

  • 对正负数没有概念

  • 分数运算的概念模糊（比如不知道何时该约简，何时该同分母）

  • 记笔记的速度也跟不上班上同学

• 解决方法： 大量练习基础运算题。通过反复练习，巩固基础知识，提高运算速度和准确性。(点击下载练习题）

第二阶段：孩子做题时，是不是经常卡在某一步？

• 常见问题： 

  • 能看懂老师的解题过程，但无法独立完成题目

  • 老师讲解题目的当下，学生只是在抄写老师的working但是没有了解背后的含义

• 解决方法：

  • 除了抄写老师的笔记，更重要的是理解每个步骤背后的目的，所以如果来不及抄写，不如先在课堂上理解，下课后借同学的笔记抄

  • 学会“了解这个解法的目的”的做法：

    • 默写同一道题的解答（你一定很惊讶数学居然要背，但这是了解数学逻辑的起步），

    • 注明每一个解答步骤背后的逻辑，如图：

      
      

      

      
      

    • 反复练习同一类型的题目，直到彻底掌握。（其实IGCSE考题变化不大，如果学生每天愿意花20分钟做两道完整的数学题一定会看到进步。）

  • 切记：抄写和了解是不挂钩的，学生应该花时间去了解

第三阶段：成绩优秀，希望更进一步

• 常见问题： 孩子完全了解老师的讲解，会解答所有题目，但是希望进一步巩固知识，争取更高的分数。

• 解决方法：

  • 深入理解： 对答案进行更深入的剖析，了解不同解题方法的优缺点。

  • 模拟考试： 通过做历年真题和模拟试卷，熟悉考试形式和难度。

如何判断孩子处于哪个阶段？

为了更准确地了解孩子当前的学习状况，我们提供一份简单的自测表：

通过这个自测表，家长可以初步判断孩子是否需要补习，以及需要重点加强哪些方面。

总分计算解答

• 20分以下： 建议一对一补习，由经验丰富的老师制定个性化学习计划，并提供针对性的辅导，当这个问题解决后才考虑小组补习

• 21-33分： 可以考虑小组补习，通过与其他同学的互动，加深对知识的理解。

• 34分以上： 不需要补习，但可以通过补习来稳固成绩。

我们的课程是如何安排的？

• 注重理解： 注重培养学生的理解能力，讲解每个解题步骤背后的思维方式，让学生真正掌握知识。

• 解答技巧：教授解题技巧，让学生学会如何用同样概念解答不同款式的题目。

• 丰富练习： 我们提供丰富的练习题，帮助学生巩固所学知识。

• 考题分析：分析历届考题，整理出同类型的题目，教学生在考试时分辨。

我们在多年的Add Maths教学中发现，许多学生在面对题目时感到困惑。这些概念的抽象性，再加上解题步骤的繁琐，很容易导致学生在解题过程中出现符号错误、计算错误等问题。想要更好地掌握Add Maths，打好基础非常重要。想了解更详细的Add Maths学习基础，可以参考另一篇文章：《学Add-Maths需要什么基础》

总结

学习是一个循序渐进的过程，不管是高数、物理、化学或是其他科目，都需要学生、知识传授者和家长的共同努力。通过最科学的学习方法和专业的辅导，孩子一定能够取得优异的成绩。

Self-test: Know your child's Add-Math level in 5 minutes!

 (点击看中文版）

The next two years are crucial for your child's success in IGCSE exams, especially if they're aiming for STEM fields. Many parents worry about their child's performance in Add Maths. Questions like, "Why can't my child get good grades even though they seem to understand the lessons?" and "Should I hire a tutor for those careless mistakes?" are common.

This article will explore your child's learning stage in Add Maths and offer practical solutions.

Understanding the Learning Journey

Most students go through three main stages when learning Add Maths:

Stage 1: Struggling with Basics

Common issues: 

• Slow calculation speed

• Confusing mathematical symbols

• Difficulty grasping positive and negative numbers

• Unclear concepts about fractions (like when to simplify or find a common denominator)

• Might also struggle to keep up with note-taking

Solution: Spending time on basic calculations can really help strengthen foundational knowledge while increasing both speed and accuracy! (Download worksheet)

Stage 2: Getting Stuck Mid-Problem

Common issues: 

• Might understand the teacher's solution but can't solve problems on their own.

• Often end up just copy the teacher's work without truly understanding it.

Solution: It's important to understand why each step is done, not just copy it. Try these tips:

• Memorize and Explain: Try memorizing a solution and then explaining it in your own words.

• Understand the Logic: Write down why each step was taken.

  
  

  

  
  

• Practice: Do lots of similar problems. IGCSE questions are pretty consistent, so 20 minutes of practice each day can make a big difference.

Remember: It's all about understanding the material rather than just memorizing it. So, take your time to grasp the concepts behind each problem.

Stage 3: Aiming Higher

Common issue: Students understand the concepts but want to get even better.

Solution:

• Deeper Understanding: Explore different methods for solving a question and see which one is best.

• Practice with Past Papers: Get used to the exam format by doing past papers.

Assessing Your Child's Stage

Use this simple checklist to see where your child might need more help:

Based on their score, you can tailor your support accordingly:

• Below 20: Consider one-on-one tutoring to address specific weaknesses and provide personalized guidance.

• 21-33: Group tutoring can be beneficial for peer interaction and collaborative learning.

• 34 and above: While tutoring might not be strictly necessary, it can still provide additional support and enrichment.

Our Approach to Teaching Add Maths

Our teaching methods focus on:

1. Understanding: We explain why things work, not just how to do them.

2. Problem-Solving: We teach strategies for tackling different types of problems.

3. Practice: We provide plenty of practice questions to reinforce learning.

4. Exam Preparation: We help students understand the exam format and prepare accordingly.

In our many years of teaching Add Maths, we've noticed that many students struggle when faced with complex problems. The abstract nature of these concepts, combined with the intricate steps involved in solving them, often leads to errors such as incorrect symbols or calculations. However, a strong foundation is crucial for mastering Add Maths.
