    Samantha Dalmas was fantastic!

    I can’t thank you and Brooklyn Letters enough for connecting
    … More us with Aileen. In all our feeding therapy journey we have not gotten anything near the kind of benefit that we did from her. Her knowledge, professionalism, and responsiveness have put us on the path of progress with my grandson and has also made us feel genuinely well cared for.
  • Best 1:1 Bronx NY Elementary Math Tutor | Brooklyn Letters, Brooklyn Letters Christine Weiher ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    We were amazed with Allison! She met my son at 2 1/2 years old, not speaking much at all, and over a computer, and she was able to develop a bond and friendship, so much so that he would look forward to his weekly computer time with Allison. … More I was not sure how the speech therapy would go- but we are so happy that we tried it out and continued. It allowed my son to gain confidence in his speech, make a new friend :), and also give him the skills and a bit of understanding of how to shape his mouth or where to place his tongue to make the proper sounds. We were extremely happy with Allison- she was fantastic to work with.
  • Best 1:1 Bronx NY Elementary Math Tutor | Brooklyn Letters, Brooklyn Letters Andrea Saffady ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    My sessions with Karen have been extremely helpful. My speech has improved tremendously. In fact, I just finished 2 hours of conducting interviews with a consulting client via MS Teams and I have an upcoming conference call. Both my … More neurologist and neurosurgeon remarked about how good my speech is. Much of the day it is perfect, although I still have some rough spots when I get tired or speak too quickly. One of my granddaughters is a speech pathology student at Ithaca College. She sat in on 2 sessions while she was home for winter break, and she was very impressed with Karen.

    We were delighted with Christie. First, and most importantly, our son made great strides under her guidance. So great, that we felt he no longer needed help!

She provided thorough and informative updates on our son's progress and which exercises she was using with him, so we could reinforce what she was teaching him. All in all, we had a fabulous experience with Christie and would highly recommend her.

  • Best 1:1 Bronx NY Elementary Math Tutor | Brooklyn Letters, Brooklyn Letters Samantha Packard ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    We've been working with Theo from Brooklyn Letters for close to 4 months now and the results are apparent; our daughter has vastly improved her speech in a relatively short amount of time. We make "Theo Day" a celebration … More in our house with pancakes for breakfast, and the enthusiasm is matched in the sessions.

    The work that Allison P. did with our daughter over the years has been invaluable to us. Our daughter had such a good relationship with Allison, and it allowed them to work really well together - even remotely these past 6 months. This … More year, Allison went above and beyond by helping us throughout the neuropsych eval we did, trying to re-open our daughter's IEP at her school, and eventually landing her at our chosen school. She was in contact with our daughter's teachers, with the neuropsychologist, and made herself available as a reference to speak on behalf of our daughter's learning differences.
    Allison stopped by our house last week to give our daughter cupcakes and say goodbye, and I literally cried with appreciation for what an amazing speech therapist she has been. She has been our daughter's biggest champion. The new families that she will work with this year are lucky to have her.

    Our experience with Theo was terrific. Theo was great with my son. He developed a positive relationship with him based on sincerity, respect, trust and a deep personal connection. In their lessons, Theo was encouraging, creative and kind. … More He helped our son understand how to differentiate the sounds he made when he spoke, and gave him great exercises to practice every week between lessons. Our son was sorry to have the lessons come to an end, but recognized that Theo had helped him as much as possible and it was time for him to stop. Theo explained to him (and us) how to keep working to get the last 5%, and encouraged him to keep working on the exercises on his own. I have recommended Theo to another parent who noticed my son's improvement and inquired for her own son.
    We are all grateful to have gotten to know Theo, and we greatly appreciate all the work he did to help our son.

    "I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Michelle Macroy-Higgins. We are extremely pleased with her work with our daughter. I was so grateful for my daughter to have a speech therapist who is a researcher (specialty in late … More talkers), graduate professor and practitioner. Her expertise was clearly evident in our conversations and work with our daughter. She was very responsive to my questions and often sent articles and other materials about language development that I found helpful. Thankfully, my daughter's speech improved tremendously. Michelle developed such a warm relationship with my daughter. My daughter was always excited to see Michelle and would greet her at the door with a big hug. Lastly, I would add that Michelle always demonstrated empathy with me as a mother who was initially worried about her daughter's language development. I could go on and on about how pleased we were with Michelle's work."

We’ve been working with Maddie on English and math for our daughter. It’s been great and Maddie has been absolutely amazing.

Ilan B

Chris has been wonderful working with U on math for the past few months, she adores him!

Z.K.

Ethan was very happy with the sessions.
I could see his increased confidence in Math classes at school. Ethan’s grades were generally improved in his IB maths assessments and his MAP percentile ranking increased from 78 to 87%. During this time, Ethan missed 2 of his 5 school Math classes each week for tennis training. Sam provided the math support we needed at home to cover the curriculum but also worked well to fill gaps in his knowledge from previous years.

The Importance of Math in Early Childhood Education

Math skills are foundational for academic success. Early exposure to math concepts fosters critical thinking and problem-solving abilities that children will rely on throughout their education. Math encourages logical reasoning and lays the groundwork for future learning in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields. Developing these skills early helps build a positive attitude toward math, setting students up for lifelong success.

Key Math Concepts for Preschoolers: What to Teach and When

  • Counting: Introduce counting through songs, games, and daily activities to help children understand the concept of quantity.
  • Number Recognition: Teach children to recognize and identify numbers through fun visuals and hands-on activities.
  • Basic Shapes: Explore geometric shapes by pointing them out in the environment and using toys or art projects.
  • Sorting and Classifying: Encourage sorting objects by color, size, or type to develop logical thinking and comparison skills.
  • Simple Addition and Subtraction: Introduce basic addition and subtraction concepts using everyday scenarios (e.g., sharing snacks).
  • Measurement: Discuss concepts of length, weight, and volume using real-life examples, such as measuring ingredients in cooking.

Elementary Math Skills: What Every Child Should Master

Best 1:1 Bronx NY Elementary Math Tutor | Brooklyn Letters, Brooklyn Letters
  • Addition and Subtraction: Fluency in basic addition and subtraction facts is essential for progressing to more complex operations.
  • Multiplication and Division: Understanding these concepts will set the foundation for fractions and more advanced math in later grades.
  • Place Value: Students should grasp the concept of place value to help them understand larger numbers and operations.
  • Fractions: Introduce basic fractions, recognize parts of a whole, and understand simple comparisons.
  • Word Problems: Teaching students how to approach and solve word problems is crucial for applying math concepts in real-life situations.
  • Measurement: Students should learn to measure length, weight, and volume using standard and non-standard units.

Signs Your Child Might Need Extra Math Support

Watch for signs such as:

  • Frequent frustration during math homework or activities.
  • Avoidance of math-related tasks or reluctance to engage with math concepts.
  • Difficulty understanding basic math facts or concepts.
  • Low confidence or negative self-talk regarding their math abilities.
  • Inconsistent performance in math assessments or assignments.
  • A lack of progress despite instruction and practice.

If you notice these behaviors, it may be time to seek targeted math help for struggling students.
