At this session organised by The Straits Times, experts share strategies that can make a difference to your child's preparation

Some parents and children may think that mathematics is a difficult subject and that ability in it is innate. But such a myth can be dispelled by providing opportunities for students to experience bite-size success, says a maths expert.

Dr Cynthia Seto, a principal consultant for mathematics at Marshall Cavendish Education, says "everyone can learn mathematics and effort to learn is more important than intelligence".

Dr Seto will be speaking at The Straits Times (ST) Smart Parenting PSLE Prep Forum on April 12, which will take place at the SPH News Centre Auditorium from 10am to 12.30pm. It costs $15 for ST subscribers and $35 for SPH Media account holders.

She will share strategies that parents can use to guide their Primary 6 child to revise for the PSLE mathematics examination.
