Helping Primary 3 to 6 students develop stronger problem-solving skills to tackle challenging Math word problems.
PSLE Math heuristics are problem-solving strategies that help students tackle challenging Math questions when the solution is not immediately obvious.
At Heuristics Mind, students learn to recognise the problem type, select an appropriate heuristic and apply it systematically — rather than simply memorising solution methods.

Visualise quantities and relationships to understand complex problems.

List possibilities systematically to identify all possible solutions without missing any.

Make systematic trials and refine them logically to find the solution.

Organise quantities into groups to reveal relationships and simplify the problem.

Identify patterns and use them to solve complex problems systematically.

Use simple diagrams to visualise information and uncover relationships.
