What to Expect
While DuoSpace curriculum is customized for each student's needs and learning preferences, these are the core elementary mathematics areas we typically cover:
- Mathematical Discovery: Fostering natural curiosity through hands-on activities, visual models, and engaging puzzles that make abstract concepts concrete and meaningful.
- Number Sense & Operations: Building strong foundations with numbers, operations, and place value through games, manipulatives, and real-world connections that promote deep understanding.
- Pattern Recognition: Developing early algebraic thinking by exploring, creating, and extending patterns in numbers, shapes, and everyday situations.
- Creative Problem Solving: Cultivating multiple solution pathways, perseverance, and flexible thinking through age-appropriate challenges that reward innovative approaches.
- Visual Mathematics: Strengthening spatial reasoning and geometric understanding through drawing, building, and manipulating shapes in playful, creative contexts.
- Mathematical Communication: Developing the ability to explain thinking, justify solutions, and engage in mathematical discussions using appropriate vocabulary and representations.
Prerequisite Knowledge
Students beginning our Elementary Mathematics tutoring come with varying levels of mathematical exposure and confidence. No specific prior knowledge is required – we start where each child is comfortable and build progressively, emphasizing joy and engagement in the learning process.
What Our Students Say About Us
See how our hyper-personalized approach has transformed students' relationship with calculus and boosted their academic achievement.
My son was becoming math-anxious until Austin connected arithmetic to his love of astronomy. He adored using addition and multiplication to calculate distances between planets and how big Jupiter is.
Jessie was bored with her math but didn't want to move up a grade level. Austin introduced us to some workbooks that were her perfect level and we actually had to stop her from just finishing the entire thing!
