Learning math and building study skills around Math empowers students to master what is challenging.  While students may not use complex math as adults, math does teach problem solving, step by step processes and the value of practice. 

If your student struggle to work independently on Math, this workshop will help them build confidence to tackle math problems as they learn to apply study actions.  The goal is to teach students what it means to ‘study’ math. Students learn by doing so bring those summer math packets!
