Why Most Children Struggle with Multiplication — And How This Book Changes That
Written by educator Ang Chee Peng, this program is designed to help children build true multiplication mastery through understanding, visual thinking, and structured memory techniques — not blind memorization. Now available on Amazon Master Multiplication Tables in 30 Days on Amazon
For many children, multiplication tables become the first major obstacle in mathematics.
They memorize facts repeatedly, yet forget them during tests. They spend hours drilling times tables, but still hesitate when solving simple questions. Over time, frustration grows, confidence drops, and math starts to feel stressful instead of enjoyable.
The problem is not that children are incapable of learning multiplication.
The problem is that many children are taught to memorize without first understanding the structure behind the numbers.
That is exactly why Master Multiplication Tables in 30 Days was created.
Written by educator Ang Chee Peng, this program is designed to help children build true multiplication mastery through understanding, visual thinking, and structured memory techniques — not blind memorization.
Instead of treating every multiplication fact as unrelated information, the book teaches children how multiplication facts are connected.
At the heart of the program is the innovative 5+5 Memory Method™, which helps children use familiar anchor facts to derive more difficult ones quickly and confidently. Children learn to connect multiplication facts using doubling, halving, repeated addition, skip counting, and number relationships. This reduces cognitive overload and makes recall significantly faster and more reliable.
Research and educational practice consistently show that strong multiplication fluency is essential for long-term mathematical success. Multiplication skills form the foundation for fractions, division, ratios, algebra, and problem solving. Regular structured practice and meaningful number relationships help children retain multiplication facts more effectively.
Unlike many traditional drill books, this program is designed to be:
Structured and easy to follow
Child-friendly and confidence-building
Visually organized for efficient learning
Suitable for both home practice and enrichment programs
Focused on conceptual understanding instead of rote memorization
The book is especially helpful for:
Children who forget multiplication facts easily
Students who lack confidence in mathematics
Parents looking for a systematic approach at home
Tutors and educators who want a clearer framework for teaching multiplication
Over 30 days, children gradually develop speed, accuracy, and confidence through carefully sequenced practice. More importantly, they begin to see patterns in mathematics instead of isolated facts.
This shift is powerful.
When children understand how numbers work together, mathematics becomes less intimidating and far more meaningful.
As a mathematics educator with years of teaching experience in Singapore, Ang Chee Peng believes that children learn best when instruction combines structure, understanding, and encouragement. This philosophy forms the foundation of both the book and the programs at AL1 Project Centre.
If your child has been struggling with multiplication tables, or if you simply want to build a stronger mathematical foundation early, this book provides a practical and effective starting point.
