Paragon Private & International School is in Johor Bahru, the southern gateway city across the causeway from Singapore. Its students preparing for Cambridge IGCSE 0606 sit the same papers as everyone else. Programmes can change, so confirm the current Add Math pathway with the school directly. This page is for Paragon families wanting independent 1-to-1 help with Add Math, we’re not affiliated with the school; we support students who attend it.

When a confident student starts to slip

Add Math stacks: each topic leans on the ones before it. So a student who was doing fine can start to struggle not because the new work is beyond them, but because an earlier foundation, the algebra or functions underneath, never fully set. A class moves on regardless; 1-to-1 stops, finds the specific gap, and rebuilds it. That’s usually what turns a stalling student around, and confidence returns once the foundation holds.

How the online 1-to-1 works

Classes are online, no commute through Johor Bahru’s traffic, taught by a 0606 specialist vetted by our founder, aligned to the school’s order, with exam technique and past-paper practice layered on. Rate is RM80–90/hr in 1.5-hour sessions.

Start with a 1-hour trial class, real teaching plus an honest read on the gap to target. Message us on WhatsApp with your child’s year and current grade.

Common questions

My child at Paragon started Add Math confident but is now struggling. What helps?
This is common and very fixable. Add Math builds on itself, so a topic that didn't fully land, often the algebra or functions underneath, quietly undermines everything after it. The fix isn't more of the same; it's finding the specific weak foundation and rebuilding it, which is what 1-to-1 does. Once the underlying gap is closed, the topics that felt impossible usually come back within reach, and confidence returns with them.
Do you follow the school's teaching order?
Yes. Each student's programme is built around their own class sequence so tutoring reinforces current schoolwork, with exam technique and marked past papers added on top. We are independent and not affiliated with Paragon; we support students who attend it.
