FOURTH GRADE MATH TUTORING
4th grade students need as much math help and guidance as possible to ensure they keep up with more challenging elementary math concepts.
Some students struggle to master essential fourth grade math skills without additional tailored instruction.
Give your fourth grade students more opportunities to consolidate learning and practice math skills with personalized online tutoring program with a dedicated math tutor.
The opportunity to sit and talk to a private tutor is so valuable. Particularly for learners who are shy in class because they’re scared of getting it wrong. Their confidence has improved massively. It’s great this is happening now as by the time they get a bit older it’s almost too late.

Starting math tutoring in fourth grade has a greater impact on learners than leaving it until middle school or high school.
A 4th grade math tutoring program helps accelerate progress and students’ understanding of math topics before the achievement gap widens in later school years.
4th graders are building on their 3rd grade math skills, tackling complex problem-solving and difficult multi-step word problems.
One-on-one online tutoring sessions provide extra math opportunities for 4th grade students struggling to keep up with a difficult math curriculum.
Often, 4th graders require different teaching styles — differentiating instruction and worksheets for a whole fourth grade math class can be challenging.
Students work one-on-one with a private tutor who adapts instructions and lesson plans in real-time according to the student’s needs.
All online 4th grade math tutoring lessons are created by a team of certified teachers and cover the 4th grade standards for every US state and Common Core.
Third Space Learning’s 4th grade tutors are STEM specialists — it’s like bringing in multiple high-quality interventionists into your elementary school for fourth grade without the price tag.

How do you tutor a 4th grader in math?
When tutoring a 4th grader in math, focus on building their understanding of multiplication and division, fractions including improper fractions, and basic geometry including measurement conversions. Encourage problem-solving and reasoning skills by working through word problems together.
What math level should a 4th grader be at?
By the end of 4th grade, students should be proficient in basic arithmetic (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division), have a good understanding of fractions and decimals, and be able to solve multi-step word problems. Ahead of 5th grade math, 4th grade students should also be introduced to factors, multiples, and basic geometry concepts.
What are the math lessons for Grade 4?
Grade 4 math lessons cover advanced addition and subtraction, multiplication and division of multi-digit numbers, fractions and decimals, and basic concepts of geometry including the properties of shapes. Students also learn about factors and multiples, explore measurement and data interpretation through graphs and charts and lay a foundational understanding of more complex math concepts in elementary education.
