San Jose Math Tutoring FAQ
Math is a subject that carries over into many different areas of life. We use math in cooking, when we go shopping, in telling time, and when trying to find patterns.

Math is a subject that constantly builds upon prior knowledge. Your child could need to have a solid understanding of basic math, in order to try to advance to subjects such as algebra, geometry, and statistics. A tutor can work with your child to strive to ensure that they learn the fundamentals, such as rounding numbers, using percentages, and basic problem solving. They can also be of assistance if your child is having difficulty in more advanced subjects, like algebra and statistics. Math is also a concept that is tested on the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP). If your child is having trouble now, getting help can make a world of difference.
