Seriously Addictive Mathematics (S.A.M), a good math enrichment and education provider, has 10 locations in Singapore, including one centre within Downtown East (1 Pasir Ris Close).
Established in 2010 in Singapore and with courses developed by a team of former school teachers and textbook publishers, the company is today the largest Singapore Math enrichment program in the world for children aged four to 12.
The program is based on the global, top ranking Singapore math curriculum with a primary focus on problem solving, complemented by two-pillared approach of classroom engagement and worksheet reinforcement.
Overall, the math courses are differentiated from the competition by an emphasis on developing mathematics mastery through interest and understanding in the subject, over memorisation and drilling to simply chase grades.
In addition, the math education’s focus on curriculum and effective coaching enables children to develop a positive attitude towards maths and to build a strong foundation in the subject with an eye on future challenges.
The curriculum is based on Singapore Math – a global top-ranking curriculum according to international surveys TIMSS and PISA – with an approach and an individual learning plan tailored to each child at their own skill level and pace.

Classroom engagement on the math courses emphasizes understanding before procedures, where the Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract (CPA) approach is used to introduce new math concepts, always in an engaging and meaningful way.
Also, support provided by coaching, in an intentionally small class setting of 5-6 children per trainer, helps children explore, discover, and build stronger confidence towards math.
With courses created by a team of former school teachers and textbook publishers, the math enrichment worksheet tasks are comprehensive, varied, and incrementally advanced. This makes learning challenging yet achievable, increasing motivation.
As a mathematics courses provider, Seriously Addictive Mathematics has more than 150 centers in 16 countries worldwide.
