Your Child’s Situation
Your Child’s Situation
Your child’s homework score is high or perhaps even 100%, but that doesn’t carry over to their grades on tests and quizzes.
This situation can be very frustrating and confusing. To both your child and you. How can it be possible? How can your child do so well on homework and yet so poorly on tests? Shouldn't your child's great homework performance indicate their high math level?
Unfortunately, that's not the case.
Homework isn't a reflection of your child's math level.
Here is why:
Your child understands many problems, but has hard time solving them independently, especially under pressure (thus, low quiz and test scores). Some concepts are easy for them while others are very challenging.
When those challenging problems occur on the homework, your child can look through their notes, ask their friends for help or simply solve them incorrectly (and still get a full score, that's right).
On the other hand, when the challenging concepts occur on tests, your child gets confused and loses a lot of points.
Homework doesn't teach math.
It simply reinforces the mistakes, and makes your child feel as though they are making progress. In reality, they aren't – which is apparent to you based on their test scores.
Your child needs help bridging the gap between their homework and tests:
They need to learn how to solve problems independently. They need to use deep learning to really understand math concepts. Not just those they get on the homework but the whole variety, including special cases and challenging cases.
Instead of simply completing homework for the grade, they need to use homework to actually learn. Then, they need to expand on the homework, to tackle the concepts that are most challenging for them. They also need to strengthen their fundamentals, for success and confidence in their current and future math classes. And math fundamentals are, unfortunately, also not included in the homework.
Doing well on homework and struggling with tests makes many children lose their confidence very quickly. Putting in the effort with no results, over and over again, makes them very frustrated and discouraged.
Your child already struggles with independent solving, along with (likely) fundamental math concepts, and losing even more confidence is only adding to the problem.

Homework isn't a reflection of your child's math level.
Here is why:
- this might shock you but getting 100% on homework doesn't mean your child actually solved all (or even most) of the problems correctly
- homework tends to be easier than tests
- homework often doesn't include all concepts that occur on tests
- homework doesn't have a time limit, and tests do
- homework is open-notes and tests aren't

How Your Child Can Reach Their #1 Math Goal:
Study Effectively And Enjoy Math
How Your Child Can Reach Their #1 Math Goal:
Study Effective And Enjoy Math
Does your child often study for hours – with little to no progress?
Do they have to sacrifice sleep to study math?
Do they constantly fall behind and play catch up and still don't do well in math?
Do they watch videos, read the textbook – with no progress?
That’s means that they study ineffectively.
Studying ineffectively is destroying your child's progress, confidence and motivation!
There is nothing more frustrating and discouraging than wasting hours and hours of effort, with absolutely no results.
Conversely, with effective study skills, your child will progress much quicker.
They will be able to solve harder and harder problems in a matter of minutes. And they will gain speed, motivation and confidence.
Better grades will follow.
That, in turn, will motivate them to study more.
It will be much easier to motivate your child to study if they know that 1 hour of math will help them really improve and get ahead, instead of being another hour of “math torture” just to get another F and feel stupid.
Without the frustration caused by studying for hours with no results, your child will feel much more encouraged and motivated to put effort into math. Many students actually start enjoying math once they see their progress and what they are actually capable of.
At Learn Vibrant, we learned that even students who don't particularly like math, are happy to have tutoring to relief them from getting confused in class, pushing through homework on their own and failing tests. As long as they know they can really improve.
And with powerful study skills – they can.
The key fact is: studying effectively isn’t difficult.
It doesn’t require your child to study more.
As matter of fact, it means that your child will understand more in less time.
It’s a matter of applying a few important principles and adopting them as habits.
What habits?
By adopting these simple but powerful techniques, your child will be able to feel progress every time they sit down to study math. It will motivate them to put in more effort and help them enjoy math more.

What habits?
- Your child needs to learn proactively - solve problems and analyze mistakes. Not just read the textbook or watch videos. They need to convert every mistake into a learning experience – analyze it, understand it and correct it.
- Your child needs to apply Deep Learning, after every mistake they understand, they need to solve at least 3 more examples of the same type to solidify their understanding and gain confidence.
- Your child needs to tackle math fundamentals to have solid math foundations for more complex topics. That will help them focus on new topics and learning, instead of getting stuck on small details.
By adopting these simple but powerful techniques, your child will be able to feel progress every time they sit down to study math. It will motivate them to put in more effort and help them enjoy math more.
Your Child’s Potential For Improvement
Your Child’s Potential For Improvement
Your child needs to learn multiple variations of problems. Each topics consists of several major types your child needs to master to do well. Even if the homework doesn't include all of them, tests most likely do.
Your child needs to solve problems independently to gain confidence, feel strong and be prepared for tests. Simply solving problems isn't enough.
In order for your child to understand math concepts in-depth and build the foundation for success in their future math classes, they need to become fluent and confident in the fundamentals of math.
Your child needs to use homework and expand on it to identify and eliminate their unique weaknesses, instead of simply completing the homework. It will help them get better grades, progress faster, gain confidence and so much more.
