With a deep understanding of middle school math curriculum and years of experience, our educators provide a personalized approach to target your child's unique needs. We make learning fun and exciting, turning those tricky math concepts into an "a-ha" moment. 

Middle school math subjects:

1. Numbers and operations: This involves working with whole numbers, decimals, fractions, integers, and rational numbers. It can involve operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

2. Algebra: Students learn about variables, expressions, equations, and inequalities. They solve linear equations and work with functions and patterns.

3. Geometry: Students study shapes, lines, angles, and properties of various geometric figures. They learn about perimeter, area, volume, and coordinate geometry.

4. Measurement: This involves learning different units of measurement (such as length, weight, time, and temperature) and converting between them. Students also learn about rates, ratios, and proportions.

5. Data analysis and probability: Students collect, organize, and analyze data using graphs, charts, and statistics. They learn about probability and statistical inference.

6. Problem-solving and reasoning: Students learn problem-solving strategies and logical reasoning to solve mathematical problems.

Our classrooms are guided by a Socratic teaching approach, fostering critical thinking and encouraging open dialogue among learners. By facilitating engaging discussions and posing thought-provoking questions, students are able to explore topics more deeply and gain a comprehensive understanding of the material. 

We incorporate a mix of traditional methods such as videos and limited PowerPoint presentations to accommodate various learning styles as well. 

In addition, we gamify our lessons, as much as possible, to make learning fun and interactive for students. By adding elements of games and competition, we are able to keep learners engaged and motivated to participate in their education.

We also incorporate hands-on projects, wherever possible, to provide students with real-world application of their learning. Through these projects, students are able to apply their knowledge in practical ways and further enhance their understanding of the subject matter.
By designing this type of diverse classroom environment, utilizing multiple teaching methods, we effectively address the diverse learning styles of our learners.
