Our ImmersiveMath! Approach
- In-depth Assessment and Consultation: During a comprehensive academic assessment, we evaluate each student's strengths and areas for improvements, as well as academic goals. Through the consultation, it is our goal to thoroughly understand the wants and needs of the parents and student – including his or her academic history, hobby, interests, and extra-curricular activities.
- Personalized Learning Plan: We use the assessment results to tailor math instruction to the unique academic goals and learning needs of the student.
- Strategy & Practice: We equip our students with useful strategies that will help them tackle real-life math problems. Also, regular practice is a key to rapid achievements in a short period of time. Therefore, we use daily practice activities to reinforce the day's education.
- Communication with parents, legal guardians, and/or other teachers: We invite and welcome parental involvement. We value open communication and coordinate student math development with secondary parties, including: parents, teachers, and other stakeholders. Parents are regularly informed about the student's progress and alerted if parental support is needed.
Our Goals
- Build a strong content background: We fill any knowledge gaps in math theory through personalized and patient instruction. Our students are able to realize their full math potential, improve confidence, and will be prepared to take a leading position in the classroom amongst their peers.
- Equip each student with essential life qualities: We take pride in becoming role models for our students as we address the importance of self-discipline, time management, organizational skills, concentration, and of course academic improvement.
- Practice problem solving strategies: We help our students learn how to manage immediate math-related problems without panicking. Through patience and understanding, our instructors work to remove any frustration related to the learning process. We help our students gain confidence while working on math.
- Support parents: We are here to assist parents in ensuring their child's mathematical success. We emphasize coordinating math developmental activities with parents. When a parent is unable to meet with our instructors in person, instructors are available by phone to provide updates and coordinate ongoing learning.
