The Shine Academy offers programmes focused on improving children’s intellectual and cognitive skills in maths and reasoning. Our curriculums are highly structured and systematic - helping young students master fundamental concepts. We make sure each subject is thoroughly learned and understood so our students are able to solve problems independently and in a methodical manner.
The Shine Academy programme is designed to complement and enhance your child’s school education.
Offering accelerated learning in maths and reasoning, The Shine Academy fosters your children's ability to think critically, strengthens their logic skills, and helps them fulfil their goals through innovative teaching techniques.
Mathematics
Our aim is to help children understand and love mathematics, see the beauty and elegance behind numbers, be creative and open-minded and strive to think outside the box. To achieve this we provide an engaging and enriching environment in which children can develop their maths abilities far beyond the ordinary.
Reasoning
Our Reasoning Workshops are designed to teach children how to approach Reasoning and CAT questions for London day and UK boarding schools - these include schools in the 11+ London Consortium and schools asking students to sit ISEB/GL and CEM exams and pre-tests.
Our engaging curriculum keep kids coming back for more, even as they grapple with some of the most rigorous math problems available anywhere. We use the rigorous study of mathematics as a vehicle to develop our students’ math fluency, intellect, and character, empowering them for life. If you would like your child to embrace math as a problem-solving tool they'll use for the rest of their life, Shine will take them there.
Our courses are built on extensive research based on the UK National Curriculum and exam requirements at different levels, Shanghai maths teaching techniques and systems and the seven core maths competencies. We want our students to look forward to their next lesson and there is no better approach than peer-to-peer learning.
We have categorised questions from over 200 past and sample 7+, 8+ and 11+ exam papers, and deliver these in topic specific sessions. Our courses are designed to prepare children for both primary and secondary school admission exams - 7+, 8+, and 11+.
Our groups are c.6 students split based on ability. To secure a place, full payment must be received by the start of the term.
Shanghai Maths embodies the belief that every child can do well if they are taught well. We have taken the principles and systems of Shanghai Maths and applied it to the UK curriculum to design a programme that helps them to develop a maths mindset for analysis and problem solving.
At the core of Shanghai Maths principles is the belief that children learn better when a topic is fully explored and taught in depth.
Our courses are designed to prepare children for both primary and secondary school admission exams - 7+, 8+, and 11+.
We believe small group lessons are more effective than one-on-one tutoring or teaching in larger groups, as it allows everyone to participate and promotes peer-to-peer learning.
