Class Experience

US Grade Kindergarten - 2
Beginner - Intermediate Level
In this full-curriculum hands-on 1st grade math class, loved by hundreds of students, learners will master 1st grade math skills including addition within 20, subtraction within 20, time, and counting within 100.  Join today and master these fundamental skills with a multi-sensory learning experience. 

Fostering a love for math through hand-on learning is what we do best. We will make it fun by using a bubble pop fidget, abacus , clock, or other manipulatives to learn the fundamental concepts of addition, subtraction, time, and counting within 100.  These tools make math concepts fun and memorable! If your learner doesn't have them though, that's no problem. They can follow along with the teacher and see the concrete examples. 

We believe that self-confidence is key to building strong foundational math skills. Through hands-on activities and guided problem-solving, your learner will gain confidence in math concepts. We make math fun and relatable, turning abstract concepts into tangible learning experiences. The tangibility of utilizing math manipulatives helps learners develop a concrete understanding of math and learn to love it because they genuinely understand it. 

𝐉𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐍𝐘 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞! This class allows for flexible enrollment. Our classes are structured so that learners on the 1st grade level can join class times that have already begun. Join at any time during the school year and you can participate in the lessons. Each week's lesson is designed to be independent yet connected, so new learners can join at any point. Missed a class? No worries, as students can jump right back into the flow without falling behind.
