THIRD GRADE MATH TUTORING
Build confidence and a love for math in 3rd grade
Third grade students are beginning to move on from the basics of math and learn how to apply their grade-level knowledge to more complex problems.
But with the skill levels in each class becoming more varied, it can be hard to give every student the support they need.
Ensure students don’t fall behind or lose confidence through personalized one-on-one online math tutoring with their own dedicated specialist tutor.
The children are very much enjoying it. The tutors can work on gaps of knowledge and misconceptions which are harder to address in a whole class situation.

Benefits of 3rd Grade Math Tutoring
Starting math tutoring in third grade results in a greater impact than leaving it until middle school or even high school.
Enroling 3rd graders in a math tutoring program helps accelerate progress and understanding of math concepts before the achievement gap widens in later years.
Develop problem solving
3rd graders are building on their 2nd grade math skills, tackling complex problem-solving and harder word problems.
One-on-one online tutoring sessions provide extra math opportunities for third grade students struggling to keep up with the pace of math lessons and more difficult math concepts.
Individualized tutoring service
Often, 3rd graders benefit from different teaching styles and differentiating worksheets for a whole class can be challenging.
Each student works one-on-one with a private tutor who adapts instructions and math lesson content in real-time according to the student’s needs.
