Mathematics: Paper 2 (Word Problems)
Explained
Meet Mr. Zhang, Zheying.
Mr. Zhang is a former MOE Math teacher who became a full-time tutor and co-founded Good School Learning Hub. A primary and secondary math specialist, he created the START method (Simplify, Topic, Action, Resources, Test) to help students break down and solve challenging questions, and wrote the START Fast Math series.
For this run, he's marking the practices your child does, himself, by hand, and recording the corrections and explanations so you can watch alongside your child.

Delivered digitallyOne slot. All inclusive.
Here are all the things included in the run when you book a slot. The underlying methodology is simple: follow a practice routine, have your paper marked and mistakes explained clearly, and learn how to do better for the real exam.
3 past-year papers
Handpicked by Zheying from real school papers at your child's level - Primary 3–5. Each focuses on Word Problems.
Full marking, by hand
Every question marked the way an examiner would - not based on an answer key that was created by someone unqualified.
15-min correction videos
For each paper, Zheying walks through your child's actual mistakes and how to fix them. If there's more than 15 minutes' worth, he'll cover the ones that matter most.
15-min report & exam insights
At the end of the run, Zheying provides you with his observations about your child's performance, as well as specific tips on what to look out for during the exams.
Getting your child to do the paper was never the hard part.
Past-year papers are still one of the best ways to get your child exam-ready - real questions, real exposure, real odds in their favour. Marking it the right way is critical - low quality answer keys result in low quality corrections. Explaining the mistakes accurately, the way a qualified teacher would, is essential - and it's the part you as a parent were never trained for.
- Finding the time to mark every question, every paper, on top of everything else.
- Even when you do, knowing an answer is "wrong" isn't the same as knowing how to explain why.
- Schools don't publish answer keys - the one in your assessment book was written by whoever published it, not MOE or your child's school.
- Math is often taught differently from how you learned it - so helping at home can confuse more than it helps.
- The papers you buy yourself have no deadline - easy to buy, easy to let sit half-done in a drawer.
- Zheying marks it by hand, the way an examiner would.
- Every real mistake gets a recorded explanation - why it's wrong, and exactly how to get it right - rewatchable anytime.
- Marked the way an MOE-trained teacher knows schools actually expect - not someone else's best guess.
- Explained clearly and simply enough for any child to follow along - even if they are weak in Math.
- A submission deadline for each paper - so completing it becomes a goal, not just three more papers sitting in a drawer.
- One run - no long-term commitment, no recurring fees, but an excellent supplement to tuition.
The finer details about this run.
What happens after I book a run?
You will have to wait for the run to begin at the start of the month. In the meantime, you should log in to your run dashboard to get familiar with it and see what to expect next.
When are the submission deadlines for each practice?
Zheying will set the respective deadlines in a staggered manner, across the entire run (~15-21 days) - so that there will be enough time for your child to review the previous practice before attempting the next.
Do I need to follow the submission deadlines?
Yes, please. The deadlines function as a practice routine that your child can follow. Zheying has also planned his schedule around the deadlines. So if you miss a deadline, Zheying will still mark the paper but may not be able to provide the explanation video.
How long should I give my child to complete the paper?
This is indicated in the dashboard (as per exam standards). Zheying strongly recommends that your child attempts the paper with a mindset and environment that mimics a dry-run - no distractions, in one sitting, and attempt every question.
How will I know when a new practice is ready or a paper has been marked/explained?
You will see alerts in your run dashboard and you will also receive email notifications regarding the key milestones within the run.
What if a run is full?
You can join the waitlist and we'll let you know if more slots are made available as well as give you early access for the next one that opens for registration. Slots are limited on purpose: this is so that Zheying can allocate the right amount of time & attention to your child's work.
This run is closed.
$129 all-in. Three practices, marked by hand, every mistake explained on video - before your child sits for the real thing.
No payment now - joining the waitlist just puts you first in line.
