LOWER SECONDARY MATH AND
UPPER SECONDARY E MATH / A MATH

The mastery of the subject requires students to develop critical thinking, reasoning, and metacognitive skills to solve mathematical problems. Many find it hard to apply mathematical concepts to the same questions presented differently, which may be due to the lack of in-depth understanding of the various concepts. This will greatly deflate the student's confidence in the subject and reduce the most important aspect of the subject - Practice

​

At Zenith, we strongly believe in nurturing students to see the immediate relevance of what they learn effectively by curating a set of examples to guide students on the application of appropriate methods when it comes to solving those questions.
