Course description
Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics motivates learners to improve their mathematical abilities, viewing them as essential life skills and a strong basis for further studies in mathematics or to support skills in other subjects. It enhances students’ proficiency, confidence, and skill in applying methods with or without the aid of a graphic display calculator.It cultivates learners’ abilities in mathematical inquiry and/or modeling, promoting both conceptual understanding and proficiency in applying techniques and methods.
Our Approach to Teaching and Learning:
We follow the 5-step process depicted in the picture below.
