What is Math Coach? Math Coach is a Center for Math Excellence offering tutorial support, review sessions, and advance classes in Math. Math Coach is open to college, high school, and grade school students. How can Math Coach help my child? Insightful Instruction . First, we seek to understand why a student is having a hard time in Math. It could be poor fundamentals of previous Math topics, or uninspiring teachers, or “math phobia”, or poor study habits, or classroom trauma that leads to “mental block”, and so on. By finding the root of cause of the problem, we can tailor-make our tutorial approach to what works best for the student. The best teachers . We've invested in high-caliber teachers: they are experts in Math who are fully equipped to bring out the best in your child. We have extremely high standards for our teachers, because it is through them that we draw out excellence from our students. Our teachers are at the core of our being BEST IN MATH, and they are committed to helping your child excel. Commitment to coaching. We match the teacher most suitable for each student, such that the Coach (teacher) has a personal commitment to help her student learn and develop. We build a partnership between Coach and student --- the Math grade is not the output of one, but a joint responsibility owned by the team. Individualized approach. We recognize that not everyone learns within the 4 walls of the classroom, at the same pace as the rest. We are willing to go back at previous lessons to ensure the student grasps the fundamentals correctly. And we track the effectiveness of our approach by monitoring the student's improvement. Why is Math Coach different? Disciplined learning, not spoon-feeding. Unlike an ordinary tutor, a Math Coach will not answer the homework FOR the student. Rather the Coach helps the student LEARN how to answer the homework, by himself. This results in deeper understanding of the lesson. It also builds study habits and increases the student's self-confidence. Aligned with the classroom curriculum . We support what is taught in class, strengthening the student's understanding of the current topic in school. We do not believe in fancy programs or new tricks of doing Math. This is because (1) we do not want to confuse the student with something that is different from what he learns in school, (2) a student is graded based on what is taught in the classroom now and not on special tricks, unrelated skills, or new topics. Math with a smile. Because we know that kids hate Math , we make every effort to make each session at Math Coach a positive experience. From our well-lit facilities, to our extensive learning materials, to our welcoming teachers, we try to remove the student's resistance to learning Math. Value for money. We understand that you are investing in your child's education, so we provide him with consistently high quality with every review or tutorial session. This is how we give you good value. We also don't overprice --- it is against our principles. Visit us and see for yourself that our rates are very competitive.
