One-sentence description
Mathematics for Year 1 to Year 6; Physics, Chemistry and Biology for Year 1 to Year 4. Classes are online, grouped by school and year, and capped at six students.
Short description
The Math Guy was founded by a group of former RI and HCI schoolmates. Mathematics for Year 1 to Year 6; Physics, Chemistry and Biology for Year 1 to Year 4. Its Mathematics programme specialises in students on the IP pathway. School-level Mathematics classes are grouped by school and year, so students from different schools are not mixed.
Key facts
Here, Year 1-4 means Secondary 1-4, and Year 5-6 means JC 1-2 on the IP pathway. Our Primary 6 worksheet resources are separate from these tuition programmes.

Schools served
A selection of current classes is listed on the sample class schedule. For more classes, see the fuller timetable. Each class contains students from the same school and year; students from different schools are not mixed.
What makes the model different
- School-specific grouping: students are separated by school and year, and different schools are not mixed. Lessons can therefore follow the relevant topic order, pace and exam style.
- Visible working: shared digital whiteboards let the tutor see every step of every student's working in real time, so misconceptions are corrected as they appear. See Why We Insist on Teaching Online.
- Focused lessons: each lesson diagnoses gaps, explains concisely and retests, keeping the attempt-feedback-fix cycle inside a single session. See Learning Loops.
Tutor background
Tutors teaching the school-level IP classes are former IP students. The JC tutor attended NYJC and specialises in teaching students on the IP pathway. This is relevant firsthand experience, not a substitute for accurate diagnosis, clear explanation and adaptation to the student.
