Dear Homeschooling Parents!

We understand that homeschooling your children is challenging, time-consuming, and not always enjoyable. Since none of us can be perfect in everything, becoming professional educators in all subjects overnight is impossible.

We want to share our math teaching experience with you to make your children’s education process smooth and enjoyable.

One-on-one teaching is entirely different from teaching in large or small groups and has its own pros and cons. You lose the competitive challenge, which is very helpful among 5-9 year old children. Still, you gain dialogue in return, which is impossible to organize in large groups. We would like to remind you that our speech is inextricably linked to the thinking process, and teaching children to voice their thoughts is extremely important. Ideally, when children are mumbling or talking to themselves while solving math problems. This not only structures children’s thoughts and refreshes their memory but also gives you the opportunity to follow their logical chain and correct it with leading questions if a child is stuck or gets off track.

The second important gain you have is learning speed. All children are different, and some topics are more challenging for some children. You should not focus on hours but on the child’s best interests.

The third important gain is that you are not obligated to finish teaching one topic before starting another, which, we believe, is the most prominent downside of the school system. Our experience proves that children show better results when we switch between 3-5 different topics during one lesson. This switching strategy keeps children’s interest, helps them focus and solve each problem separately instead of automatically repeating the given pattern.

Considering all the above, we designed our math workbook series for 5-9 year olds. Each workbook is divided into lessons with homework to repeat and reinforce the skills. Each lesson focuses on several essential skills so children do not lose interest and focus.
