H1 and H2 Math, plus H1 Chinese. Two subjects, one method.

JC Math is less about new techniques than it is about deep familiarity. The student who scores well is not the one who knows the most theorems, but the one who can read a question and immediately see two viable methods. H1 Chinese, taught by Zekun, follows the same logic: not more memorising, but a sharper sense of what the paper is actually asking for.

My approach for JC

Conceptual depth, exam endurance, and a quiet familiarity with paper structure

By JC, the student already knows how to study. What they often need is a calm, experienced second brain to stress-test their understanding, point out blind spots, and walk them through the harder questions Cambridge writes each year.

i.

Application before memorisation

H1 and H2 Math rewards students who see why a method works, not just when to use it. Lessons spend real time on the underlying logic of differentiation, integration, vectors, and complex numbers, so unfamiliar question stems do not unsettle the student.

ii.

Exposure to the harder variants early

The hardest questions in a typical A-Level paper are not technically difficult. They are unfamiliar. We work through harder variants of each topic well before the prelims, so nothing in November feels new.

iii.

Time and stamina under pressure

A 3-hour H2 paper is a different game from O-Level papers. We build up to full-length practice, with attention to where the student tends to slow down, and what triggers careless mistakes when tired.

iv.

Honest about university applications

Many JC students are not just chasing distinctions, they are chasing specific universities and courses. I give honest advice on how H2 Math fits into a competitive application and what scoring band is realistic.

Subjects covered

H1 Math, H2 Math, and H1 Chinese

Math lessons follow your school's pacing closely, while quietly stress-testing your understanding from the harder end of the syllabus. H1 Chinese, taught by Zekun, is exam-oriented from the first lesson and tracks the JC paper format closely.

H2 Mathematics

Realising the dreams of aspiring Analysts, Engineers and Scientists.

  • Functions, graphs, transformations
  • Sequences and series
  • Differentiation, integration, applications
  • Maclaurin series and approximations
  • Vectors in 2D and 3D, lines and planes
  • Complex numbers, Argand diagrams
  • Probability, discrete and normal distributions
  • Sampling, hypothesis testing, correlation

H1 Mathematics

Seeing the world through Math.

  • Functions and equations
  • Differentiation and integration techniques
  • Applications in business and economics
  • Probability fundamentals
  • Discrete and normal distributions
  • Sampling and hypothesis testing
  • Correlation and linear regression

H1 Chinese 华文

Taught by Zekun. Bilingual, MOE-aligned, exam-focused.

  • Reading comprehension and inferred-meaning questions
  • Application question (应用题): structure, register, mark allocation
  • Email and letter writing in formal and semi-formal styles
  • Listening comprehension (听力) with pace and note-taking technique
  • Oral exam: 朗读 and conversation prompts under time pressure
  • Vocabulary, 成语, and high-yield sentence patterns
  • Past-paper practice in the months before the A-Level paper
  • Honest assessment of what is realistic in the time remaining
A typical lesson

What 120 minutes of JC tuition usually looks like

Most lessons follow this rhythm. In the run-up to prelims and A-Levels, we shift to timed papers and review.

First 20 min

Review & questions

I will clarify any homework that is troubling my students. Concepts the student wants revisited from school lectures.

Next 35 min

Topic focus

One topic at a time, taught from first principles up to harder applications.

Next 50 min

Exam-style practice

Real Cambridge-style questions. Question analysis first, then solving, and finally review.

Summary & targets

What we covered, what's for the week, and a short note on what to revise before the next session.

Where we meet

Most JC students prefer online or after-school sessions at home.
