Ancourage Academy · Secondary · Sec 2
Content reviewed: Jan 2026
Sec 2 G1 Maths tuition at Ancourage Academy in Singapore (Bishan & Woodlands) builds on Sec 1 with more complex number work, introduction to simple algebra, and expanded data handling. Under Full SBB, Sec 2 is a key assessment year. Our ESB methodology prepares students for upper secondary Maths and supports those aiming for a G2 level-up.
What Makes Us Different
Our proven teaching methodology combines evidence-based approaches for maximum learning effectiveness
Ebbinghaus Memory Theory
Scheduled review sessions at increasing intervals — today, tomorrow, next week, next month — so concepts are revisited just before they fade, building durable long-term memory through strategic timing rather than cramming.
Socratic Questioning
Purposeful questioning that guides children to discover answers themselves — 'How did you figure that out?' and 'What would happen if we tried it another way?' — developing thinking skills rather than just memorising answers.
Bruner's Scaffolding
Step-by-step support that is gradually removed as confidence grows — tutors first demonstrate, then guide with prompts, then step back as children work independently — ensuring mastery at each stage before moving forward.

What Sec 2 G1 Maths students commonly work on
- 1
Algebraic notation — getting comfortable using letters to represent unknown values
- 2
Percentage calculations — applying discounts, GST, and interest in real-world problems
- 3
Multi-step problems — breaking questions into smaller, manageable steps
- 4
Showing working — presenting solutions clearly for full credit
- 5
Exam readiness — completing assessments within time constraints
Learning Progression
Builds On
Sec 1 G1 Mathematics with whole number operations, measurement, and basic data skills
Prepares For
Sec 3 G1 Mathematics or level-up to G2 Mathematics based on school assessment (≥75%)
Key Transition
Sec 2 determines upper secondary Maths level — strong performance can lead to a G2 level-up, opening pathways to E-Maths and potentially A-Maths in upper secondary.

Frequently Asked Questions
G1 Maths focuses on practical arithmetic and simple algebra in everyday contexts. G2 includes more complex algebraic manipulation, geometry proofs, and abstract problem-solving. Achieving 75% or above in G1 may qualify for G2 level-up.
Yes. End-of-Sec 2 is a key assessment point. Students achieving 75% or above may level up to G2. Our tuition builds the algebraic thinking and problem-solving skills needed for this transition.
ITE Nitec and Higher Nitec programmes require practical numeracy — percentages, ratios, basic algebra, and data handling. Our G1 Maths tuition aligns directly with these requirements, ensuring students are well-prepared.
Our small-group classes are intentionally kept between 3 and 6 students so every learner receives close guidance, timely feedback, and ample practice.
Each lesson is 2 hours, providing ample time for thorough coverage of topics and interactive learning.
Yes. All lesson materials and worksheets are provided and included in the fees. Students should bring regular stationery and, where applicable, school textbooks/workbooks for reference.
Yes. Our materials and pacing align with the MOE syllabus. External syllabuses (e.g. IGCSE, IB) are available upon request.
