raising your child's math knowledge to a whole new level in 2024

Hoffkids Online Math Tutoring is only for kids finishing 5th grade, entering, or going through 6th grade. I cannot tutor my own students from my current 6th grade math classes.

Learning does not begin with your child learning math. It begins with Mr. Hoffman learning where your child’s math gaps, weaknesses, and areas of strength are. Mr. Hoffman accomplishes this early on with a set of deep optional computer based math diagnostics that pinpoint your child’s math weaknesses and NYS Standard gaps from any grade level. When completed, this helps lay the sequential math program to help your child learn those crucial math skills which they are missing from prior years. This is the proper beginning to help anyone; find out what they know and do not know first.

One unique feature of Hoffkids Online Math Tutoring is that each student gets their own webpage (ex. www.Hoffkids.com/Kyle123) just for the parents to visit to monitor each session. The parent can visit their safe and secure web page anytime, and see the date, time, and how long each session was, what was accomplished, cost for the session, notices for the parents, monthly schedule, goals, and any homework that was assigned. The parent’s web page is updated within 8 hours of our session.

Yes! Now you are seeing the benefits and one reason behind the popularity behind Hoffkids Online Math Tutoring. The time flexibility enhances the learning outcomes of the child.

I am available for as many flexible one-hour online sessions per week up to 10pm that your child may need. I am available weekdays, evenings, weekends, vacations, child sick days, snow days, and summers. Sessions can be as short or as long as needed. Just tell me your ideas and goals, and I will try my best to accommodate you and your child.

01. Hoffkids Online Math Tutoring uses digital real interactive math lessons from my working 6th grade classroom. It is like your child is the only one who is in a real classroom at school. I am there to support them with their math as well as the challenges they face as 6th graders transitioning in their first year of middle school. I live it every day in my classroom. 

02. I am solely focused on the needs of the 6th grade math student in NY because of my 18 years of extensive and specialized work knowing the 6th grade NYS math curriculum inside and out. I am ahead of any changes that take place. My success and the success of my students will continue with the 2019 NYS Next Generation Math Learning Standards.

03. Parents gets their own secure and private detailed web page about their child’s math progress to always know what was accomplished during our sessions and keep their eyes on the goals as they are met. This has voiced by parents to be “100 times more valuable” than a quick verbal meeting in the kitchen after a session of “traditional home tutoring.”

04. The effective math diagnostics that I have hand created and tailored for my students, really make the difference. I call it deep diagnostics because of how it pinpoints almost every math skill for any grade, and aligns with all NYS standards for every grade level. Very powerful!

Every child has room for growth and has the ability to become a better math learner. However, I do not think Hoffkids Online Math Tutoring is for every child and family. The service will be highly effective for kids who want to try their best and are positive about the idea of being tutored and getting better at math. This online help is not as effective for children with attention issues. The child needs to be able to focus more independently because they are the only one physically in their room. In addition, children with fine motor issues will potentially have great difficulty with this online method as it uses a special graphic pen tablet.

Your child needs to be comfortable with using technology and accepting some new easy technology to learn. They will become familiar with the short “learning curve” to using a pen tablet and whiteboard software. If they are patient and understand that the tablet and program take a little time to get used to, they will enjoy the benefits of these features. The family needs to be patient, supportive, and highly communicative with both their child and myself with how things are progressing, what is working or not, and sharing suggestions.

Absolutely! Hoffkids Online Math Tutoring is not just for kids needing math help, but also for those wanting extra challenge, to think more critically and reach a goal like accelerated math for grade 7. This is done with non-routine problem solving requiring higher order thinking skills. It is accomplished through a successful and fun program that Mr. Hoffman has developed through thousands of hours during the last 8 years. All math problems are in digital format and worked on together for maximum brain burn and learning. Much fun! Click HERE to read more about this enrichment program.

The student needs a fine working computer (about 3 years old or newer) with a webcam, reliable Internet connection, and a headset with a microphone (provided FREE as a gift for your child). The pen tablet is the only item to purchase by the family, but Mr. Hoffman will provide this to get started, and the family would purchase it at the end of the first month. A buy-back program is also available at the end of our time together in effect making it cost $0. Both the creative pen tablet and the whiteboard classroom software work with Macs, PCs, or Chromebooks. Sorry, non-touchscreen Chromebooks, all iPads, and tablets cannot be used.

Why wouldn’t it work for them? 🙂 Yes of course. I know this is very new for students and parents, and they may have questions or be slightly unsure at first. 100% of all students who have tried HOMT, have continued for their entire or remainder of their present school year. I urge the student and family to give this new experience some weeks to develop, the child’s math connections to be made, and confidence and motivation to build.

Hoffkids Online Math Tutoring is a one-of-a-kind personal helping service, yet is priced at a superior value for 1-on-1 highly effective and innovative educational math help. Price per session as well as price for any number of “Need-It-Now” minutes that the child might need, will be discussed directly with the parents on the phone. Two 100% secure and easy online payment options are available and are at the end of each month.

Absolutely. My parents love to share with others about their child’s experience with Hoffkids Online Math Tutoring. References will be happily furnished upon your request. 

I would be surprised if you didn’t. A phone conversation is best. Please click the CONTACT link (I can also be reached on the top of any page at Hoffkids.com) and drop me a message with the best day, time, and phone number to reach you so we can discuss your child’s needs and answer your questions. You can also email me at Hoffkids@gmail.com.

The first step is to CONTACT or email me at Hoffkids@gmail.com. I will then call you to have a “get-to-know-you and your child’s needs” conversation. After that, a safe and secure online form is filled out by the parent, and then we’ll set up your first “install appointment” at your house.

Experience has shown that your son or daughter will surely enjoy the unique online math tutoring experience that Hoffkids provides, while becoming stronger and more confident in the field of mathematics.

All information is kept 200% secure and confidential and I look forward to speaking with you soon.
