My son's school stream their year for maths and English and he is in the top set for both. Last year he was fine with maths and his end of year report showed that he is exceed expectations.
This year is another story, he says he hates maths; that he is getting all of the questions wrongs; and he hates the teacher. Yesterday he received a letter asking him to attend an after school booster club for maths.
I try my best to help him but I have noticed that when we are doing his homework I have to explain the concept again and again and sometimes I end up working out the answer and telling him the answer. I fear I am not teaching him correctly.
Is there anything I can do? I dont want him to start tuition as he is to young and I don't want to make a big deal of it.
I have started to make him watch WhiteRose Maths videos, we watch a video for 5 - 6 mins a few times a week and we practice 2 or 3 questions? Any other suggestions.
