Ask the math tutor

These are optional planning prompts, not a validated assessment or a claim that following a checklist produces a particular outcome. Record the answer you can verify; leave unknown information as an open question.

  • Which concepts or prerequisite skills will you examine?
  • How will the learner explain mathematical reasoning?
  • How are models, practice and feedback used?
  • What reporting, home practice, session terms and costs are included?

Make the math tutor record usable

Put the date and the question at the top of your notes. Work through “Which concepts or prerequisite skills will you examine?” first. Keep the document, sample or written answer that supports each entry. Distinguish what you observed from what a provider or program told you.

  • Information confirmed: record the answer and where it came from.
  • Still unknown: record the question and who can answer it.
  • Next action: identify the person responsible and when you will check back.
