You're Not Imagining It: Something's Missing
If your child is struggling with math, feeling anxious about homework, or just going through the motions without really understanding, you're not alone. Most school math focuses on memorization - learn the steps, practice the formula, move on. But when kids don't understand the "why" behind what they're doing, confidence crumbles. Math becomes something to survive, not something to enjoy.
Maybe you've noticed your child can follow a method one day, but can't adapt when the problem changes slightly. Or they freeze when they see something new. That's not a lack of ability - it's a sign of shallow roots. And shallow roots don't produce confident math learners.
Your child needs more than another tutoring program that drills the same methods. They need a foundational understanding of what numbers really are and how they work together. That's exactly what our 3-month course is designed to build.
We Grow Deep Mathematical Roots
At Math Roots, we don't teach kids to memorize steps - we teach them to think. In our 3-month Number Sense Foundations course, children join a small group where expert instructors help them see the connections between concepts, ask questions without fear, and tackle problems they've never seen before. It's not about getting ahead. It's about understanding deeply, so confidence and curiosity can grow naturally.
See the "Why" Behind the Math
We don't just show your child how to solve a problem—we help them understand why the solution works. When kids grasp the underlying concepts, they stop relying on memorized formulas and start thinking mathematically. That understanding sticks with them, building confidence that lasts.
Expert Instructors, Real Adaptation
Every child learns differently. In our weekly 45-minute Zoom sessions, trained instructors work with small groups (3-4 students), giving each child the attention they need. We notice when someone's stuck, celebrate when they make connections, and adjust our approach in real time.
Ready for Anything
The goal isn't just to master today's math homework—it's to build problem solvers who can face unfamiliar challenges with confidence. We create a safe space where kids can take risks, make mistakes, and discover that they're capable of figuring things out. That mindset changes everything.
Three-Month Number Sense Foundations Course
This isn't tutoring that goes on forever. It's a focused, 3-month experience designed to transform how your child thinks about numbers - and by extension, all of math.
The Core Promise
Your child will gain a deep, intuitive understanding of what a number truly is - and discover how that understanding changes everything about how they approach math.
The Three-Month Arc
Month 1: Building the Concept of Number
We start at the foundation - helping students truly understand what numbers are, how they work, and why the patterns they'll discover matter.
Month 2: Deepening Understanding
With the foundation in place, students explore relationships between numbers, developing flexibility and seeing multiple paths to solutions.
Month 3: Applying with Confidence
Students apply their new understanding to increasingly complex problems, building the confidence to tackle unfamiliar challenges.
What Your Child Will Gain
More Fluent and Flexible
Your child will work with numbers more fluidly, seeing multiple ways to approach problems instead of relying on one memorized method.
Stronger Number Sense
They'll develop an intuitive understanding of how numbers work and relate to each other - the foundation that makes all future math easier.
Problem-Solving Confidence
Instead of memorizing steps, they'll learn to use properties and relationships to figure things out - a skill that transfers to every area of learning.

Founded by One of the Country's Most Trusted Math Educators
Kevin Moore
Kevin Moore has spent his career helping children and teachers rediscover what math can be. As founder of Radix and Reason Math Learning as well as co-founder of both Long-View Micro School - one of Austin's most sought-after schools - and The Number Lab, Kevin has worked with over 1,000 teachers across the United States, helping them build deeper understanding of mathematics so they can pass that gift on to their students.
But Kevin's real passion is working directly with kids. He believes every child can be a mathematical thinker—they just need the right environment. At Math Roots, Kevin and his team of trained tutors create that environment: one where questions are welcomed, mistakes are learning opportunities, and children discover they're more capable than they ever imagined.
For the first time, my daughter said she 'gets it'—and she was smiling.
My 10-year-old used to shut down at math homework. After just a few sessions with Math Roots, something shifted. She started explaining concepts to me at dinner, and last week she told me math was 'actually kind of fun.' I never thought I'd hear those words.

parent of 10-year-old
He's not just memorizing anymore—he's actually thinking.
I was worried my son was falling behind because he couldn't keep up with the pace at school. Math Roots didn't just help him catch up—they helped him understand. Now when he sees a new problem, instead of panicking, he thinks it through. His confidence has grown so much.
David L.
parent of 12-year-old
She actually looks forward to her math sessions.
I signed up because my daughter's test scores were slipping, but what I got was so much more. Her tutor doesn't just drill problems—they explore ideas together. My daughter asks questions I never heard her ask before. Math went from her least favorite subject to something she's genuinely curious about.
