Shining a light on several important issues and topics currently impacting society, ADVANCEMENTS looks at the issues surrounding the gap in math learning which can impact a young child's life FOREVER. And how Elephant Learning Math Academy has created the new way to learn math which guarantees your child will learn 1 year of math in 3 months.
Recently, we had an insightful discussion with Aditya Nagrath, PhD – the founder and CEO of the online learning platform elephantlearning.com – regarding mathematics. Aditya said that people don’t necessarily suck at math – it’s just that there is a language gap between the student and the teacher. And it is this that their platform is geared to do by bridging that gap so teachers or parents could be more effective in communicating towards the student.
Elephant Learning was featured on Denver local news in 2017 when 2-year-old Miley was doing kindergarten mathematics after using Elephant Learning for 3 months.
When learning about numbers at Rick’s Center for Gifted Children in Denver, getting youth engaged in math now can help with a problem some students may face in the future. “In kindergarten they are already behind and they never really statistically catch up,” Elephant Learning CEO Aditya Nagrath said. “Mathematics for young children before algebra can predict success all the way to high school and even to college.”
“The stories around math are where you become disempowered.” Founder and CEO of Elephant Learning, Aditya Nagrath, shares his inspiring mathematics philosophy. Elephant Learning is an online math learning platform for children ages 2 and up that guarantees students will learn 1 year of math in 3 months.
