Math Programs: 605Tutor works with all ages of math students. Our math labs can be customized for students who need more right-brain creative, hands-on presentations and practice, including dyslexic learners. May include songs, stories, mnemonics, hands-on models, and flashcards, as is appropriate for the learner and level.
Types of Math Help: 605Tutor provides tutoring for intervention and remediation on specific topics, homework help, and for homeschoolers, one of our qualified tutors can run your math program for you.
Intervention and Remediation: Does your student need to learn multiplication? Are fractions confusing? Is pre-algebra another language already? Maybe your kiddo is years behind, and you don’t know where to start to catch-up. We got you. A qualified tutor will evaluate skills your student needs in their firm foundation and strengthen those skills specifically. Having this firm foundation will make all their homework so much easier and your days more peaceful.
Homework Helper: Save yourself the after-school struggle, and a qualified tutor work with your student on homework, 5th grade - Algebra 1. You student will gain the skills needed to complete the work as well as develop valuable study skills along the way.
Homeschool Math Program Take-over: Imagine not having to teach your homeschool student math? No more fighting, no more grading paper, no more tears (for you or your child). This is possible! Our tutor can lead your math program for you. We will work with you to choose a program, and we will pace the student, teach lessons, grade papers, and provide accountability. We can work with a parent to do two or three days a week of tutoring and then the other day(s) independently. We have tutors who are experienced in many homeschool math programs including Math-U-See, Saxon, Teaching Textbooks, RightStart, Math With Confidence and more.
Some areas we think are particularly important for your math learning:
Multiplication: Does your student have their multiplication facts on automatic? Quick and confident multiplication facts are critical for math success in division, fractions, algebra, and beyond. Get this essential foundation in place for your student with this fun lab that can include stories, songs, drawing, flashcards, worksheets, and rewards.
Fractions: Fractions are a key concept in upper-level math, and must be understood well to have a firm foundation for Algebra and beyond. 605Tutor has a wonderful program to help students advance through fractions successfully. This can include hands-on models, stories, and mnemonics as needed.
Decimals: After fractions, decimals and the metric system are the next building block in a strong foundation.
Pre-Algebra: This is the level where mom and dad’s working math knowledge often can not be enough to effectively help with homework. If you are worried that you might be confusing your kiddo with choppy explanations or dragging out homework because it takes a while for you to figure out what they are doing before you can show them - come to us to get support and create understanding for your kiddo. We can cover negative numbers, one-step operations, rations, proportions, conversions, scientific notation, graphing, functions, and more.
Algebra 1: This lab can be completed before Algebra 1 as a running start, and/or after Algebra 1 to make sure their base is solid. All high school and college math and science (except biology) will sit on this foundation, so it is absolutely critical to make sure your student is solid in Algebra 1.
