What technology/equipment do we need for a Cuemath session?

Since our classes are online, a desktop or laptop computer that supports video calling is necessary to attend them. We also highly recommend a writing tablet for the best learning experience.

What platform do you use for online Cuemath sessions?

We use Cuemath Leap, our proprietary live class platform designed specifically for 1-on-1 math learning. It features a collaborative digital whiteboard (MathCanvas), interactive tools, curriculum-aligned practice, and real-time feedback to make each session engaging and effective.

Is the Cuemath platform safe and secure for children?

You can also raise a ticket instantly through our 24×7 in-class technical support. If it can't be resolved immediately, our support team will follow up at a mutually convenient time to fix the issue, and we'll reschedule the session at no extra cost.

What does it mean for my child to be "MathFit"?

Being MathFit means your child develops true mathematical fluency. They learn to think clearly, logically, and creatively, applying math concepts to both academic and real-world challenges. MathFit students build essential habits like breaking complex problems into manageable steps, recognizing patterns, and approaching unfamiliar situations with confidence.

How is this different from just being "good at math"?

Being 'good at math' usually means scoring well or being fast. MathFit goes deeper—it's about building deep math understanding, reasoning through new problems, and applying skills to real-life situations.

Can every child become MathFit, or is mathematical ability just a natural talent?

Yes! Every child can become MathFit. Success in math isn't about innate talent; it's about mindset, persistence, and practice, along with guidance that builds deep understanding and problem-solving skills.

What is "The Cuemath Way"?

The Cuemath Way is our approach to building both mindset and skills through guided 1:1 instruction, productive struggle, and real-world thinking. Tutors use strategic cues to support personalized math learning—helping students think, reason, and lead their own learning, not just memorize steps.

Why 1:1 tutoring instead of group classes or self-paced programs?

We believe 1:1 tutoring provides the most personalized and effective learning experience. It allows tutors to give undivided attention, adapt lessons in real-time, build strong rapport, and address individual learning styles and pace, which is often diluted in group settings or self-paced programs.

How does online math tutoring actually work for building real understanding?

Our online math tutoring for kids uses a live, interactive platform with collaborative whiteboards, visual tools, real-time questioning, and gamified learning elements. This approach focuses on understanding the 'why' behind concepts—not just memorizing steps—helping students become confident problem-solvers.

How is Cuemath different from Kumon?

Cuemath provides personalized 1:1 online tutoring with real-time feedback, delivered on a custom-built interactive and gamified platform that builds problem-solving skills and math confidence. In contrast, Kumon uses a worksheet-based, repetitive approach with limited interaction, which may feel monotonous and does not always adapt to each child's individual learning needs.

How is Cuemath different from Mathnasium?

Both Cuemath and Mathnasium offer personalized math support, but their methods differ. Cuemath provides 1:1 online sessions with expert tutors, ensuring undivided attention and instant feedback. Mathnasium primarily uses small-group instruction in physical centers, where tutors divide attention across students. Cuemath also uses a gamified, interactive platform for engagement and deep conceptual understanding, while Mathnasium relies more on traditional, worksheet-based learning. Cuemath offers the flexibility of learning from anywhere with a highly personalized, tech-driven experience that builds both confidence and problem-solving skills.

How is Cuemath different from Khan Academy and other online math resources?

Khan Academy and similar platforms provide self-paced video lessons where students must stay motivated and learn independently. In contrast, Cuemath pairs every child with a dedicated tutor who offers long-term mentorship, encouragement, and personalized guidance. Cuemath's 1:1 live sessions on an interactive, gamified platform provide real-time feedback and a structured learning path. Unlike passive video learning, Cuemath ensures consistent progress and confidence-building through active, tutor-led engagement.

Why choose Cuemath over a local private math tutor?

Local tutors often focus only on homework help or rote methods with fixed schedules. Cuemath offers a future-ready math learning experience through personalized 1:1 online sessions with expert tutors who build long-term mentorship. Sessions take place on our interactive, gamified platform that makes math engaging and concept-driven. With flexible scheduling and no travel required, Cuemath combines the structure of a classroom, the personal care of a private tutor, and the joy of learning from home.

How is Cuemath better than school-provided math tutoring?

School tutoring often focuses on short-term catch-up with limited personalization. Cuemath goes deeper, offering long-term 1:1 mentorship with expert tutors who adapt to each child's pace and needs. Our interactive platform makes math engaging, while the curriculum builds strong problem-solving skills and confidence. Unlike school tutoring, Cuemath fills foundational gaps, supports advanced learners, and provides a complete math learning experience—not just extra help.

How does a Cuemath class compare to group math classes?

Group math classes often follow a one-size-fits-all approach, where tutors split their attention across many students. In contrast, Cuemath offers fully personalized 1:1 sessions, with a dedicated tutor adapting lessons to your child's pace, style, and goals. Our gamified, interactive platform keeps learning engaging, while consistent mentorship builds confidence, deep understanding, and real problem-solving skills.
