Primary school maths lessons online

Primary maths goes wrong in small ways that are easy to miss. Carrying in subtraction, the times tables that never quite stuck, word problems where the arithmetic is fine and the sentence is the obstacle. Video lessons suit this age better than most parents expect: they are short, the child stays in a room they know, and a shared screen lets the tutor watch the working rather than just mark the answer. Nobody is driven anywhere after school, which counts for more in January than it does in May. The tutors here work at primary pace and have the patience it takes, and a free first lesson lets you watch how your child responds before you commit to anything.
