Breaking Through Math Anxiety: Effective Strategies for Foundational Learning
This session will focus on the critical role of hands-on learning and sequential frameworks in teaching mathematics.

This session will focus on the critical role of hands-on learning and sequential frameworks in teaching mathematics, particularly for students with dyscalculia, maths anxiety, and learning differences.

In an education system that often prioritizes abstract procedures and memorization, foundational concepts such as Counting, Place Value, Addition, Subtraction, and Time are frequently overlooked. These core concepts are essential for building both mathematical understanding and confidence.

When students struggle with these basics, it can impact not only their performance in assessments and exams but also how they show up in every area of their lives (whether with anxiety and lacking confidence or with certainty and fluency). Maths mastery determines – or denies – a sense of wellbeing based on certainty in their everyday life skills, in future academic choices, and in career opportunities.

Join us to explore a research and evidence based, systematic approach that guarantees your confidence for teaching your own children these foundational concepts in a way that promotes mastery, fluency and ease in everyday life.
