    Why are schools using "new math"?

    Don't be afraid of this new math! It is actually turning your child into a problem solver more than the "old math" ever could. Here are the main takeaways from this episode: New math isn't about memorizing steps, it's about understanding why math works. Tech-driven world needs problem solvers, not just calculators. New math helps kids think critically and solve real-world problems. Parents can support new math by staying positive, making math real, asking questions, and seeking help.

    What most parents get wrong about online learning

    In this episode, I address the misconceptions parents have about tutoring online. These are some of the key takeaways from this episode: Tutoring format matters less than tutor quality and curriculum. Ignore past bad online experiences; online tutoring has improved and offers unique benefits. Technology can enhance learning, making lessons engaging with interactive tools. Tutoring can ease anxiety with smaller groups and a focus on learning. Choose the best tutoring option based on your child's needs, like learning style and subjects.
