Class Experience

US Grade 6 - 9
At Math with Mac, our motto is 'work hard, play hard". We learn math by connecting to real-world experiences and letting the students set the pace.  

Each class is structured into four parts: 
1. Check-in
2. Master topics covered in school or homeschooling by completing test prep, homework help, review, or acceleration
3. Assess Learning. When Students feel confident in the skill, they can demonstrate their learning by completing the skill three times without help. 
4. Assign extra practice (optional) and set goals for the next session

A summary will be sent to the parent after every session. If we don't get to everything in one session that is ok! It's important to go at the student's pace to create a stress-free environment.
