From B to A: Ryan's IGCSE Maths Journey at BISK Kuching
Borneo International School Kuching · Kuching · Extended tier · 10 months
Ryan's parents in Kuching were concerned that their son's B-grade performance at BISK wasn't reflecting his true mathematical ability. The local tutoring market in Kuching offered limited specialist Cambridge IGCSE support, and they found Teacher Rig through an online search. Over ten months of weekly online sessions, Ryan worked through the Extended syllabus topics he found most challenging: functions and their transformations, the harder coordinate geometry questions, and trigonometry beyond SOHCAHTOA. His B grades were solid but his examination technique — particularly on Paper 4 extended questions — was costing him marks he knew the answers to. Refining how he set out multi-step solutions and building stamina for the full 2.5-hour Paper 4 pushed his scores into the A range by April. He achieved A in May/June, much to his and his family's delight.
"We were in Kuching and couldn't find the right specialist locally. Online sessions with Teacher Rig gave Ryan exactly what he needed. Highly recommend."
Questions About This Journey
Are there good IGCSE Maths tutors available in Sarawak?
Specialist Cambridge 0580 tutors are scarce outside of Kuching city, and even within Kuching, the market is much smaller than KL or Penang. Teacher Rig's online model provides Sarawak students with the same specialist support available in Peninsular Malaysia's largest cities.
