Introduction to Maths-Whizz Tutoring PlusMaths-Whizz is an online simulated tutor that provides your child with personalised tuition catering to their unique ability and continues to adapt itself based on your child's progress. It has shown to significantly improve children's maths ability and confidence, particularly when used in the recommended way.

Handy Hints for Getting Started:The aim of this document is to assist parents and students to get started with Maths-Whizz.

Getting Started:1) Experience has shown that long term success with Maths-Whizz is increased by making it part of a student's weekly routine. Please use the reverse side of this sheet to plan your child’s week. Place on a wall next to the computer your child will use most for lessons.2) Your child has a unique username and password which will permit them to log into Maths-Whizz 3) Students should go to www.whizz.com and login at top right.4) Completing the assessment. The assessment is a very important part of the Maths-Whizz Tutoring Plus programme. This may have already been completed in school.

Each student needs to complete an assessment in order for the tutor to record a maths age in each topic. It is fine to read the questions to the students but do not help with the answers, otherwise the results will not be a true reflection of their current maths ability. In the assessment questions there is a "don't know" button that students can and should use when they are unsure of an answer.

The assessment should last approximately 45 minutes, but the students can take as long as is necessary. It is not timed and they don't get any extra marks for speed! Don't worry if they have to stop - the assessment is saved as they go.

After the Assessment: Recommended Usage:

Once the assessment is completed, students will receive lessons targeted to their ability so it is just right for them. Sometimes they will receive the same lessons more than once. That is ok and intentional as the virtual tutor feels they need reinforcement before moving forward in that particular topic. Students will also receive tests periodically to imbed concepts they have covered in the animations.

The key to getting the best results for your child from Maths-Whizz is to use the Maths-Whizz tutor regularly in short bursts on an ongoing basis. Two to three sessions of 20 to 30 minutes per week is ideal.Use the weekly planner on the reverse side of this sheet: let your student schedule to two or three sessions, then stick to it.

Students who use Maths-Whizz in this way get better at Maths. It's that simple

Monitor your child's usage and share with them their progress by logging into your parent account to see progress reports.
