Amazing Math Powers Conference Overview
Amazing Math Powers is a comprehensive Educational Conference, that has provided support to teachers in the development of their Mathematics and Literacy Teaching Practices and Social/Emotional Well-being.
The workshop content is primarily built around a world class mathematics program, Prime Mathematics, resulting in an approach to teaching and learning mathematics that works!
Our aim is to equip especially primary school teachers with the exceptional Singaporean Prime approach to teaching mathematics, thereby fostering a generation of students armed with exceptional problem-solving skills and critical thinking abilities.

Testimonials
I was able to make a connection between the strategies taught and the scope of P.E.P.
This session was quite informative and the information garnered will be beneficial to my school.
Thank you! It was an AMAZING first round!
The hands-on activities were unique and interesting.
This was absolutely fantastic, insightful, informative, and presented in such a comprehensive manner.
The presenter was able to stimulate my ability to learn the key concepts of understanding Fractions.
Children often struggle with these concepts, however if more workshop like these could be given to parents also then the phobia for Math would be gone.
The presenter was able to elicit meaningful conversation from participants.
