VERBAL FLUENCY
Mathematical language is crucial to achieving age-related expectations within maths but is an aspect often overlooked.
In order to master maths, one must be fluent in mathematical language.
Pupils enrolled in Third Space Learning’s one to one tutoring are exposed to mathematical language on a weekly basis to deepen their understanding of key topics and concepts.
Pupils lacking in mathematical confidence often shy away from participating in whole class conversation. Working one to one with the same tutor on a weekly basis builds rapport and provides pupils with opportunities to engage in mathematical dialogue in a safe space.
Practice makes perfect. The more frequently pupils practise using mathematical vocabulary, the quicker it becomes engrained. Attending weekly one to one tutoring sessions provides pupils who need it most the opportunity to practise mathematical language, improving their verbal fluency and plugging gaps in their learning.
As maths lessons are often limited to one hour a day, teaching the lesson content, addressing 30 pupils’ questions and completing independent work can be a challenge. Pupils are afforded the opportunity to ask a wealth of questions using mathematical language during one to one personalised tutoring sessions on the topics and concepts they need support on.
SATs papers are often riddled with complex mathematical language, which means, for many, the tests need to be decoded. Pupils are able to talk through complex word problems, complete practice exam questions, and build their self-confidence with praise from Third Space Learning tutors.
