      My son learns CMA and Sakamoto.


      CMA is a mental math enrichment to help your child focus. It also improves mental calculation. Good for P1-P3 if their mental calculation is weak.

      Sakamoto method is a good method for Primary students to solve problem sums, if your child has difficulty using model. Singapore’s model method caters more for P3-P4, but when it comes to P5-P6 where the problem sums become more challenging, model method cannot be applied, but Sakamoto method can.

          Hey,
          My son just started sakamoto method recently. I agreed with you that this mettod works better than model at p5/p6.
          I hope this method can help him to achieve an A .
          Hope I am heading the right direction by learning sakamoto method.

              the kiasu student:

              If you're from the Sakamoto (young prodigy) tuition centre, and you've attended classes there, please come here! We can discuss issues like math and science using the sakamoto method! Also, you can post interesting questions which are not suitable for the 'model drawing' method but good for the Sakamoto method!


              !

                My son P4 this year just attended the 4-day Sakamoto Introductory course and he loves it! A lot of problem sum which takes a long time to solve can be solved using Sakamoto method in 1-2 mins. He will continue the course for next year.

                  any parents with kids gone through Sakamoto method before ?


                  is Sakamoto method more powerful over model method taught in primary school from P2 to P6 ?

                      I attended the parents’ preview in Hougang. It’s a very good method and I have signed up my P5 son to attend the class and he loves it. Highly recommended! Great in solving this type of problem sums:


                      If I distribute 10 oranges to each of the children, I will be short of 30 oranges and if I distribute 8 oranges to each of them, I will be short of 6 oranges. How many oranges and children are there?
