You don't know what's missing.
You can't tell whether it's a gap, a worry or something else. Some days they get it. Other days it's a battle.
Why I created these resources
Your child pushes back. So you add more tuition hours?
Because they won't work with you, you book more help. Yet some children won't work with their tutor either. I've sat beside children who open games in another tab, colour in their maths books instead of doing the calculations, or refuse to answer another question. Sometimes they simply don't want to do any more work.
Sometimes they're overloaded. Sometimes the explanation hasn't clicked. And sometimes they've practised the wrong method so often that the mistake becomes automatic. Drilling bad habits strengthens bad habits.
A child can argue the hind legs off a donkey to avoid ten sums. But put a card game on the table and give them the chance to beat you? Suddenly they're willing to have a go.
Less work. More strategy. Understand the child, build on their strengths and find the real reason they're stuck. Different children need different approaches. That's why I created offline games alongside online learning resources.
