Seriously Addictive Math (S.A.M)


Seriously Addictive Mathematics (S.A.M) is a multi-award-winning thinking math program based on Singapore Math, a global top-ranking curriculum according to international studies TIMSS and PISA. Since 2000, schools across the globe have adopted the world-renowned Singapore Math, a curriculum with a focus on problem solving and developing thinking skills in children.

At topkids, we train children to develop an attitude of self-discovery and learning at a young age. Our trainers ask leading questions rather than spoon-feed children. A habit of self-learning and discovery transcends beyond the subject of Mathematics – it will greatly benefit their learning of other subjects as well.
