3rd Grade Math Straight A's: Mihir Practices a Little Every Day
Mihir's tutor knows what a new topic does to him: the session lifts, and he wants to try it right away. Two years of Cuemath tutoring with Mahwish Naaz turned that curiosity into straight A's in math, all through Grade 3.
Mahwish Naaz knows what a new topic does to her student. Mihir hears something he has not seen before, and the session lifts. He wants to try it right away.
That appetite now has a report card. Mihir, a Grade 3 student in Canada, has been earning straight A's in math all through the year while working consistently ahead of his classmates. Two years of online math tutoring with Mahwish, his Cuemath tutor, sit behind those grades.

- School Math: Straight A's all through the year
Mihir was never a child who needed convincing to practice. He liked math from the start, and his parents could see the interest was real. Their question was what to do with it. They were not looking for someone to fix a problem, and worksheets alone were not the answer either; the family had tried math apps before. What they wanted was a person, a tutor who could take the interest higher and keep a quick learner supplied with something new. With Mahwish, they stopped looking.
"I have had the pleasure of teaching Mihir for the past two years, and it has been wonderful to see his growth in Mathematics. Mihir has consistently been a focused, disciplined, and enthusiastic learner. He shows a genuine curiosity for new concepts and responds with excitement whenever he is introduced to a new topic or strategy.
Over time, he has developed a strong understanding of various mathematical concepts and has become more confident in applying different strategies to solve problems. His consistent effort, respectful attitude, and eagerness to learn have been some of his greatest strengths.
I am truly proud of Mihir’s progress and look forward to seeing him continue to grow and achieve even greater milestones in Mathematics."
~ MAHWISH NAAZ, CUEMATH TUTOR
In class, Mahwish keeps the new coming. Over time Mihir has gone from solving a problem one way to carrying several strategies into it, and switching calmly when the first one does not work. The confidence grew with every strategy he added. The practice between sessions happens on the Cuemath app, in short stretches through the day, light enough that it simply gets done.
"Mihir was always keen on learning more about Maths, and we were looking for a Tutor who could propel his interest to higher level’, with Mahwish we found the percise Tutor and CueMath just helps so much more in the sheets and the curiculum and that ease of being able to ask Mihir to spend sometime on his Maths skill throughout the day, even when we are travelling, which is so much more easier than having to carry sheets of papers that we had to, with other apps. So we found the golden spot with CueMath and Mahwish for Mihir, and we are happy and pleased."
~ MIHIR'S PARENT
His report card fills in the detail. Mihir earned an A in Mathematics in both terms, across a Grade 3 curriculum that spans Number, Algebra, Data, Spatial Sense, and Financial Literacy. His teacher's comments sound a lot like his tutor's: when multiplying and dividing, he works with several strategies at once, arrays, repeated addition, equal groups. Cuemath has seen this shape of progress before. Ruthvik, a Grade 4 student, won his school's Math Whiz Award after the same kind of steady weekly work.
His parents wanted Mihir's interest to have somewhere to go, and it went. Curiosity, fed steadily, turned into skill, and skill into the kind of confidence that makes a third grader MathFit. An appetite like his is easiest to feed in the elementary years, and those years go quickly.
