Year 4 – Maths
At NexGen Tutoring, we recognize that Year 4 is a pivotal “bridge” year. Students move beyond basic arithmetic and begin to tackle the sophisticated logic and spatial reasoning required for upper primary and high school success.
Our curriculum is designed to transform “maths anxiety” into mathematical confidence by blending rigorous academic foundations with practical, real-world application.
What Your Child Will Master
Our Year 4 program focuses on four key pillars of mathematical fluency:
- Numerical Fluency & Number Theory: We move beyond simple counting to master place value up to five digits. Students consolidate their 4, 7, 8, and 9 times tables, learning to apply these fluently to multiplication and division strategies.
- Logical Reasoning: Students explore the relationship between fractions and decimals, learn to identify complex number patterns, and apply multi-step operations to solve “word problems” with ease.
- Measurement & Geometry: We bring maths to life by exploring 2D and 3D shapes, classifying angles, and mastering the use of maps, scales, and compass directions.
- Data & Probability: Your child will learn how to interpret the world through data—reading timetables, understanding chance/probability, and representing information through categorical data sets.

Building Thinkers, Not Just Calculators
Our goal at NexGen isn’t just to help students find the right answer—it’s to help them understand why the answer is correct. By fostering skills in logical thinking and systematic problem-solving, we prepare our Year 4 students to become independent learners who are ready for the challenges of Year 5 and beyond.
