We love (and have great success) using the TouchMath method for our tutoring clients.
Marcie and her tutor...
Here’s what happens when we teach your student using TouchMath.
When adding, they count forward. When subrtacting, they count backward. For multiplication and division, they count in sequences. Tutoring students touch, count and repeat the problems and answers aloud. This goes a long ways toward ensuring success.
This method:
Simplifies and clarifies all areas of math and computation
Develops left hand/right hand directionality
Reduces or eliminates number reversals
Reinforces the values of numbers
Gets rid of guesswork
Helps with developing a good self-image
This outstanding teaching strategy works well with any textbook series and complements the manipulative approach.
Because of this technique’s effectiveness, TouchMath has become the most accepted and widely used basic math supplement in general classrooms, special education, Chapter 1 programs, and home learning environments, throughout the United States and in many foreign countries.
Ultimately, this proven method will help you to better prepare your students for the more complex, technology-driven, math-dependent careers of the future.
