This course is designed to have your child master the most basic, and thus most important, foundations of mathematics.  Mastery will be sought with immediate feedback given to each student at their level.  Five classes, covering three critical skills, help build your child's mastery and mathematics foundation.  Examples using everyday objects to help cement math learning are given frequently.  Games (card games, dice games) are also frequently used to motivate and inspire students.
