Liam was a basketball pro but struggled to calculate percentages. Free throw accuracy? Scoring averages? He never thought math mattered—until his tutor turned stats into a game.
Now, Liam calculates his shooting percentage before his coach does and can predict his team’s chances of winning.
Before: “Math is pointless.”
After: “Wait, if I increase my free throws by just 10%, I can beat my rival? Let’s go practice!”
Liam now calls math his "secret weapon on the court."
6th-grade math is more than just numbers; it's about building confidence and skills that last a lifetime. A strong foundation sets the stage for future success and makes math less intimidating.
