What Naperville , IL Families Are Saying

Real results from real families across Illinois going beyond better grades to true understanding. Children develop stronger thinking skills, deeper problem-solving abilities, and lasting confidence. Parents see the difference as their kids grow into independent, capable learner
Ms. Adelene
Mother of 11 year old
"Our daughter was already quite proficient in math and she got even better at S.A.M. She learnt different ways to solve word problems and her speed, accuracy and confidence in math have improved tremendously. S.A.M trainers are constantly encouraging her. Also, S.A.M worksheets are very well designed and she looks forward to completing them. I am so happy to see Morgan excited to go to S.A.M every week!"
Ms. Janice
Mother of 11 year old
Jaydon was struggling with math in grade 4 and was reluctant to do math problems. S.A.M trainers take the time to help him understand and fully grasp each topic before getting him to attempt questions in increasing levels of difficulty. The dedication and passion of S.A.M trainers are unparalleled. My child has developed confidence and passion for math. It’s now his favourite subject!
Ms. Carpenter
Mother of 6 years old
We love S.A.M! We have been so impressed with the team at S.A.M in helping our son develop his reading, writing and math skills. The work they do is challenging and comprehensive and we are so glad we found this wonderful gem.

The program has two components. A sixty minute a week Classroom Experience and Worksheet Experience.
The Classroom Experience, conducted by Certified S.A.M Trainers, engages students with dialogue, probing questions, props, games and a healthy dose of encouragement. The idea is to make learning fun and memorable through an array of interactive experiences.
The Worksheet Experience engages each student individually in their own designated time for study at home. This regime instills self-discipline and independent learning, both necessary skills required in all manner of learning, not just Mathematics. S.A.M worksheets are designed with narrative instructions and relevant examples before each topic commences. The volume of work and level of difficulty are all carefully calibrated to ensure that learning remains challenging yet fun for every student at S.A.M.
Your child learns through practice worksheets, in class and at home. Our worksheets are designed to hone the most relevant skills and methods for your child to excel in Singaporean Math. The pace of learning is specially calibrated for your child.
Many private schools in the Chicago area already use Singapore Math or elements of Singapore Math. Many public school districts are also migrating towards Singapore Math. The Common Core curriculum developed in late 2000s was heavily informed by leading math programs around the world including Singapore Math. The implementation of Common Core principles and hence the curriculum and delivery differ from school to school.
SAM curriculum corresponds very well with the curriculum in both public and private schools in the Chicago area. In most cases SAM’s program is more comprehensive and explicitly focused on conceptual understanding and problem-solving.
Yes, SAM’s program is based on Singapore Math which a global top-ranking curriculum. As noted above it is increasingly being adopted in US schools. More than 20 countries have also adopted the methods of Singapore Math.
Math is Math all around the world. However, the way concepts are introduced, the arrangement of the curriculum, and the pedagogical methods used to teach math are not the same. Singapore Math essentially encompasses the curriculum (the way it is organized and introduced), and the teaching methods. This highly effective teaching method was first developed by Singapore’s Ministry of Education for Singapore public schools.
Singapore Math has proven to be a highly successful way of teaching mathematics. The evidence of the effectiveness is seen in international surveys by TIMSS (Trends in International Math & Science Study) and PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) that has ranked Singapore at the top since 1995.
In the most recent TIMSS test, 54% of Singapore students scored at the “Advanced Benchmark” level as opposed to 14% in the US. The “Advanced Benchmark” is defined as:
“Students can apply their understanding and knowledge in a variety of relatively complex situations and explain their reasoning”
The SAM program is a thoughtfully developed in-depth math curriculum modeled after Singapore Math. A tutoring program typically covers material externally provided by another entity such as the local school.
The SAM program offers a level of consistency and rigor that are not typically found in the decentralized implementation of core curriculum in the US.
