Too often we hear children say “I hate Maths” or parents say “I couldn’t do maths at school”? This brief talk will look at how children acquire maths skills and what are the sort of influences and experiences that impair progress in learning maths. The talk will also address lots of practical ways that parents can encourage and help their child to develop positive enjoyment and success in learning maths.
Brenda Ferrie - Lead Tutor Level 5 Course in Dyscalculia and Maths Learning Difficulties; Support and Intervention

There were other students who had no difficulties with reading and writing but struggled to understand relatively simple maths concepts, which this lead me into the world of dyscalculia.
