Ambigai Passionate maths teacher, 30 years of experience
1 Review

**Hi there,**
Mathematics can be a nightmare for many, and I completely understand—I've been there myself. I transformed from a student with low grades to one who excels in mathematics. This personal journey, combined with over 30 years of teaching experience, has given me a deep understanding of the relationship between students and math.

My teaching approach is rooted in logic and clarity. I focus on breaking down complex mathematical concepts through a systematic approach that is both accessible and engaging. I also incorporate visual aids and modern technology to create a dynamic learning environment that encourages active participation and deeper understanding.

By the way, I am Teacher Ambigai, and my motto is: **"The universe is aligning in your favor."** I firmly believe that hard work and discipline lead to success. During my university days, my friend Siow Li would always tell me, “One more step, and you’ll solve it. Keep going until you get an answer—right or wrong, it doesn't matter. Learning from mistakes is how you truly grow.” I call this the *Siow Li Method* and I share this approach with all my students.

For the past three years, I have been teaching online, helping both local and IGCSE students with Mathematics and Additional Mathematics. Before this, I taught at several higher learning institutions. Currently, I have a diverse group of 10 students ranging from Year 6 to A-levels, from both international and local schools. I have a special rapport with introverted and shy students, as I understand their challenges and work to harness their unique strengths.

I believe that student progress is the result of teamwork—including collaboration with parents. To keep everyone informed, I regularly update parents through a dedicated WhatsApp group and provide monthly progress reports.

Feel free to reach out to me for a trial class. I look forward to helping your child achieve success!

Best IGCSE Math Teacher in town

I've been fortunate to have Teacher Ambigai as my son's IGCSE Math tutor since Year 7, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. Teacher Ambigai is incredibly passionate about teaching and shows great patience in explaining complex concepts, which has been invaluable for my son's learning. Thanks to her clear guidance and support, my son's performance in Math subject has improved significantly, achieving A grades across topic tests, mid-year, and year-end exams in Year 7 and Year 8. We are excited to continue with Teacher Ambigai in the coming year, knowing that her expertise will continue to help my son succeed.
