Math can become your child's favorite subject.

In grades 6 to 8, math gets noticeably harder. Negative numbers, equations and the basics of algebra appear. Every new topic rests on what your child learned before, and even small gaps start to show.

At this age it's important not to let your child fall behind and lose confidence. So we find and close the gaps, while helping with the current school topics and preparing for tests.

Young children find it hard to stay focused on problems for long, especially when math seems boring to them. So we spend about half the lesson in a game format, to get your child interested and help them enjoy the lessons.

The other half goes to regular school work: we learn to write solutions down properly, do the calculations and solve problems the way school expects.

The early grades lay the foundation for all the math that comes after: numbers, the four operations, fractions and decimals.

It's hard to make a teenager study math when they aren't interested. The older the child, the less coaxing and reminders work.

That's why it matters so much to find a tutor your teen gets along with. A tutor they respect and trust, and whose lessons they look forward to.

We follow your child's own school curriculum. We go over the topics they're covering in class right now, help with the hard assignments, and prepare them for upcoming tests and exams.

To prepare, we use real questions from past exams, including ones from your child's school district and state.
