Why many students struggle with learning multiplication & division:
- Many children don’t learn new information by simply trying to memorize facts. They might remember briefly, but after a few days or hours, the facts they crammed into their brains are gone!
- For many children, learning times tables is tedious and there is little understanding of what they are doing.
- The sheer number of facts they have to learn seem insurmountable.
- When kids memorize facts, most of the time they don’t understand how to apply what they have learned in daily life.

How Right-Brained Multiplication & Division addresses these difficulties:
- We include a tracking chart that shows exactly how many unique number combinations the student will need to learn. They can keep track for themselves and see their amazing progress.
- Every concept is story based and illustrated in order to help students understand what is going on and what the process looks like. This is where math comprehension comes into play!
- Shortcuts and simple tricks for memory are included.
- Visual memory plays a huge role in this approach to learning multiplication & division; it is a magical tool that is very under-utilized in traditional learning methods. Whenever we can harness visual memory, learning and retention are greatly increased.
