Many parents wonder why their child has such a strong distaste for math?
Majority of students that claim they "hate" math are speaking from a place of despair and frustration. But do they really "hate" it? Or are they just struggling to understand math in the way it's being taught, which then takes a toll on their confidence?
You'd be surprised to find that many of our tutors, including our directors, struggled with math themselves at one point in their education! We are living proof that with the right support and tools, everyone can be successful in math!
So what can you do if math time is causing your household stress?
- Students thrive in a learning environment so the first step to set your child up for success is to find the best fit for them.
- Mathnasium offers online and in-person instruction so that we can provide your family with a structured teaching environment depending on their learning preferences.
- The schools in San Diego Unified School District are teaching most of their students this new wave of math called "Common Core Math." This approach has posed a huge challenge to parents, who are suddenly being told their experience with mathematics has nothing to do with what their child is learning in class.
- Mathnasium teaches both traditional math and common core math so that you don't have to spend time learning this new approach and then trying to explain it to your child; our math-loving instructors will tackle this task for you!
- The last tool that will help your child's math skills grow, their confidence increase and help them regain their love for learning is to ensure they have a strong foundation. Math is piggybacked from one year onto the next so if your child is struggling, they most likely have gaps in their foundation.
- Mathnasium's grade level assessments assist families in identifying these gaps so we can use our visual material to teach the concept in a way that makes sense to your child!
