MathJogs: The Response from Parents

"At first I was a little concerned this would be too much for my daughter aged 5; however, I have been totally amazed how much she enjoys attending the lessons, and really underestimated how much a young child can learn."
Birgit Jacobsen - Hamburg, Germany

"Super! Amazing, Justus (5) enjoys the lessons and loves to play the teacher at home to the extent we have to count the cornflakes at breakfast!"
Maike Urbahns - Hamburg, Germany

"My 6-year-old son has leaped forward since the teacher started to conduct lessons in the kindergarten. In every picture of an owl he sees Ollie the Owl and most important he occupies himself with Mathematics all the time."
Adriana Gerlitz - Kibbutz Hanita, Israel

MathJogs changes parents' perceptions of their children's capabilities:

“My son always had difficulties in Maths. I thought the Mathjogs methods would help him, but I was really surprised to see how big the change was, not just in his schoolwork but in everything. Now he studies Maths, and does his homework without being reminded.”
Parent – Lisbon, Portugal

“I was so ready for my daughter to fail I didn't think she could do the first lesson. She has adjusted very well to Mathjogs lessons and her attitude has changed. She had been so afraid to speak up at school, now she gets involved. She isn't afraid of failure anymore.”
Parent – Lisbon, Portugal

MathJogs also improves the skills of students who already achieve good marks in Maths:

Even students who are confident in their Maths abilities can learn from MathJogs, as a proud parent from Misgav, Israel, says: "Yosi is excellent in every subject he studies. This is the second year he has studied Mathjogs. Last year he was in the 1st level and this year he jumped to the 3rd level. This course enhanced his self confidence and nurtured his love for Maths. He is not willing to miss a Mathjogs lesson."

Case Study:

How MathJogs came to one primary school.

In the north of Israel, the Misgav School is known internationally for its progressive methods and consistently high level of academic achievement, which have helped it win numerous awards. MathJogs fit perfectly with the Misgav curriculum and learning environment.

Headteacher Sarah Zemach explains the effect MathJogs has had on her students: “We use Mathjogs with our slower learners and it has improved their Maths abilities considerably. They use the Mathjogs methods during their regular Maths lessons, as it helps them keep up.”

MathJogs has not only helped the Misgav students to improve their Maths skills – it has also resulted in a complete change of perspective where Maths is concerned: “Shira used to enter Maths class angry, nervous and full of fear… now she comes in with a smile and always asks for homework.”
