Does this sound familiar... "I can't stand Math. My teacher hates me!" "Mom, Jimmy called me 'stupid' in math class in front of all my friends!" "That is not how my math teacher does it!" You are NOT alone! Hi, I'm Dr. Pan. For the last 17 years, I've worked with hundreds of math-anxious families, helping them get to the root cause of math anxiety, catch up, and excel in math. With good learning tools, kids who fell behind their classmates for years can often catch up in a matter of months. Most math struggles are caused by a combination of 3 challenges: #1) Lack of Test-taking Skills This is a performance issue. Not a knowledge issue. With proper guidance, kids can learn how to thrive under pressure. #2) Weak Basic Math Skills Math is built like a pyramid. Each new concept is built on simpler building blocks, so there is logical progress. A weak foundation makes the entire structure shaky. Finding and addressing foundation issues quickly is the key. #3) Ineffective Support at Home This might be more about YOU than your child. Study habits tend to be shaped at home.
