Lear·ned·
in
the
wrong
way ,
maths
will
e·ven·tu·a·lly·
be·come· ^
a
night·mare· .
The
most
co·mmon·
mi·stake·
stu·dents·
make
is
that
they ^
try
to
re·mem·ber·
pa·tterns·
and
for·mu·las·
in·stead·
of ^
ma·king·
sure ^
that
they ^
un·der·stand·
the
ma·the·ma·ti·cal·
con·cepts· .
How·e·ver· ,
just
re·mem·be·ring·
the
pa·tterns·
can
work
for
a
while ,
so
lear·ning·
maths
the
wrong
way
in
grade
8
may
not
show
up
in
the
test
marks
for
a
year
or
so .
Be·cause·
maths
is
a
pre·re·qui·site·
for
so
ma·ny· ^
cour·ses·
at
u·ni·ver·si·ty· ,
it
is
im·pe·ra·tive·
that
pro·blems·
are
dealt
with
prompt·ly· .
De·fi·nite·ly· ,
do ^
not
a·llow·
your
child
to
drop
maths
as
a
sub·ject· ,
or
do ^
a
mo·di·fied·
maths
course ,
wi·thout·
tal·king·
to
us
first .
The
key
to
be·ing·
good
at
maths
is
to
make
sure ^
you ^
un·der·stand·
all
the
con·cepts·
as
you ^
go .
We
pro·vide·
short
cour·ses·
on
how
to
learn
maths
at
all
le·vels· .
We
show
ou·r·
cli·ents·
how
to
make
maths
their ^
ea·si·est·
sub·ject·
at
school .
A
fi·nal·
point
-
the
maths
done ^
du·ring·
the
first
4
years
at
high
school
all
comes ^
to·ge·ther·
in
the
to·pic·
of ^
cal·cu·lus·
which
is
u·su·a·lly·
en·coun·tered·
ear·ly·
in
year
12.
Cal·cu·lus·
is
not
dealt
with
ve·ry·
well
by
the
stan·dard·
school
text·books·
so
we
re·co·mmend·
that
your
child
have
one ^
or
two ^
le·ssons·
as
soon
as
he /she
en·coun·ters·
cal·cu·lus·
at
school
-
it
will
save
your
child
ma·ny· ^
hou·rs·
of ^
work
in
this
cru·cial·
year .
