With
Math Tutoring at Success4School our focus is on each child in all we do.
Our tutoring ensures learning in a way which reaches your child. Our
four step process ensures a faster transition to learning- we even
communicate with your child's teacher, visit classrooms, and
everything we do is multi-sensory and hands on-ensuring a connection
to concepts that are sure to stay with them.
Our
math tutoring is the finest in the triangle. We use corrective
mathematics practices which specifically address your child's learning
difficulties in math involving three areas:
-computational
fluency
-problem
solving
-mathematics
vocabulary and direct skill sets
Our tutors have backgrounds using programs
and metrics grounded in time-tested research in the field of reading
instruction, including but not limited to: Quantiles, Math their
Way, Math Investigations, NCTM focal points, CGI*, and other proven
multi-sensory methods and instructional practices. We specifically
teach children how to attack math in a new way which translates into
school success using strategies specifically designed to deepen and
develop your child's concrete understanding of skills and concepts.
This is different because students use objects known as
manipulatives to "visualize" mathematics skills/concepts
before moving to paper and pencil - so the math is real, stays with
them, and provides a deeper understanding for concepts to come. We
believe math is like a five strand rope, intertwined and
ever-changing- each strand of the rope touches the others sometime
up the chain- thus skills in number sense like estimation or
fractions affect the learning of algebra and measurement. We know
from experience that children need guidance and modeling, guided
practice and support-not notebooks full of rote drill and practice.
More of the same is not effective.
We
tutor children in math focusing on the five areas of
mathematics:
-
numeration/number
sense
-
measurement
-
algebraic
thinking and patterns, functions and logic
-
data
analysis, graphing, statistics, probability
-
geometry
Using our in-depth mathematics assessment (children grades K-8-
[students in HS receive a basic math inventory], we
match specific mathematics skills and concepts needed for your child's
gaps and weaknesses needed for further growth and development to the specific points in the Wake
County curriculum for your child's grade. We understand and
know-deeply, the expectation in math your child's teacher has for
him/her- we connect what he needs to build skills and concepts to
what he needs to know and is expected to do. We match kids with
skills they are "ready to learn" understanding and
preparing them for those skills they are "expected to show
proficiency with". We use hands-on, teacher led lessons, games,
and strategies.

*Cognitively
Guided Instruction (CGI) is an approach to teaching mathematics
where teachers select problems, pose those problems, question
students, and facilitate discussion & sharing to make math
meaningful, enjoyable, and extend and connect concepts and skills.
