Have you also had a great experience with your students and want to share your story and inspire others?



Kerry Norton Homeschooling Mum - Dyslexia

Works splendidly for both my kids - my daughter has dyslexia and she struggles with the overcrowded pages usually found in workbooks. The Maths Australia books are set out clearly and with no fuss. My daughter is making a lot of progress because she is now understanding maths and can get through the pages quickly. My son loves the building part the best. He’s a kinaesthetic learner so it really helps him to get the concept in his mind when building the sum. We love this program!


Linda Hoadley Homeschooling Mum

We have seen significant improvement in our three girls since switching to the Maths Australia program, especially in their enjoyment and understanding of maths. Solid foundational concepts have played a big part in this, as well as the hands-on blocks which help with explanation of each new topic!


Jude Parent

Maths Australia offers a logical, systematic and very sensible approach to Maths right from the early years. Prior to trying the Maths Australia program I watched my son attempting to 'memorise' maths without a logical system to follow. I would get frustrated when he could not remember the very basics and assumed he just wasn't 'Maths-minded'. But I began to see that he had no structure or framework in which to understand and visualise the concepts. This way of teaching provides such a framework and Maths has become enjoyable for my son. It is now the first thing we do every day and he loves it!


Paula Stewart Homeschooling Parent

We have been using the Maths Australia program in our homeschool right from the start, so that is 12 years. We love this program. The teaching videos are excellent and the mastery method of learning has been really beneficial for my children. They are all doing very well in their maths using your wonderful program!


Rachel Adamson Homeschooling Mum

I have home educated for around 16 years. All of my children have been able to build on the clear conceptual foundations that are provided in the Maths Australia program. I like that the program ensures that basic concepts are fully understood before progressing. This has been key as they have moved into more difficult mathematical thinking and application. Very happy!


Kerry Norton Homeschooling Mum

I like the tutorial explanation videos - it makes my life easier as a homeschooling mum having someone else explain the complexity of maths. Plus the workbooks are set out clearly and with no fuss – no overcrowded pages to distract my kids. Both my daughter and son love it!


Rachel Wortlehock Homeschooling Mum

Thank you so much! We have begun using the Maths Australia program this year since we started homeschooling. My children had a lot of catching up to do with their maths from being at school and this program is thorough, well paced and easy to follow. They have made huge improvements so far!


Melissa Den Homeschooling Mum

We have been using Maths Australia for 10 years now. All our three children have enjoyed the program and its easy to follow methods of teaching maths. We’re very happy and highly recommend this program to anyone looking for a maths solution. Thank you!


Cathy Newby Homeschooling Mum

I have seen firsthand how the spiral approach of maths education can fail many students and make learning maths much harder than it needs to be. Through my own family’s education experience, (having first attended a small independent country school that used NSW’s NESA’s math curriculum), I have finally experienced the ease of teaching maths with Maths Australia's mastery approach. Thankyou for timeless teaching tips and techniques!


Julie Lockyer Deputy Principal, Caloundra Christian College

The kids are so excited about learning with the Maths Australia program! We actually have to stop them doing maths now!


Lisa Homeschooling Mum - Dyslexia

I home school my year 7 son who has dyslexia and has always struggled and really disliked maths. I have tried many programs and teaching concepts but none as far superior as this program! I came upon your program online and ordered it the same day... and we haven't looked back. My son loves it! We are looking forward to learning maths now!


Homeschooling Mum Educator

My daughter is much more comfortable with the way Brighter Maths is structured. I have found her thrive through your videos. I personally like the brighter maths worksheets too, the thoroughness and variety.


Sally Farelly Homeschooling Mum

I have been using Maths Australia resources for 15 years. I will soon be starting my 6th child on it. In all my years of homeschooling this is the only curriculum that has stood the test of time.


Natasha Teacher - Learning Support

All of my kids are kinaesthetic learners so the Integer Blocks and overlays for teaching fractions helped them to 'see' the maths in a concrete way, and the methods used are simple but better than any methods that I have seen in any classroom in my work as a Learning Support Officer. I just want to say 'thankyou' to Maths Australia for helping to make our learning journey easier. It has been a pleasure!


Kylie Anderson Homeschooling Mum

The Maths Australia program is a thorough curriculum that teaches concepts in an easy to understand way so that students don't just do the exercises but actually understand the reasoning behind the methods. We have used this program for the last three years in our home school and will continue to do so until our kids graduate.


Karen Homeschooling Parent

The program made so much sense to us. Our children now enjoy doing their maths lessons, I get them to teach the concept back to me so I know they have mastered it before they move on. We have been so happy with the program, our kids have achieved so much in a short period of time…


Sandra Homeschooling Mum

The kids are learning their multiplications very easy & quickly, which is wonderful. They had advanced so much since using the Maths Australia program.


I am homeschooling my 2 special needs children. The Maths Australia program is the only curriculum that has worked for my children. When I removed my eldest son from mainstream school, he was 3 years behind in maths. Through using the Maths Australia program, he caught up to his peers in just 6 months!! The well laid out/spaced student workbooks give him exactly the amount of practice he needs. My younger son was at grade level when I removed him from school but the Maths Australia program has given him the knowledge and confidence to work ahead of his peers. We tried many of the other ‘popular’ curriculums on offer, but we have always gone back to this program.


Chrissy Marsh Homeschooling Mum

As a homeschooling mum I have tried many different maths curriculums, but none of them compare to the Maths Australia program. Four of our seven children are currently school age and using the program. I love how simple the program is and how each of the children are progressing well and have gained great confidence in their mathematical ability since beginning. I have found it far superior to any other curriculum I have tried.


Danyela Jones Homeschooling Mum

The Maths Australia program is a pivotal program in our homeschooling schedule. I love the systematic, practical, and multisensory approach. The video sessions are priceless. It's truly a fantastic resource. We have been using this program for 3 years with two kids now and two more will join soon...


Bethany Khune Homeschooling Mum

Since beginning with the Maths Australia program, our daughter has been making great progress! In the past, my attempts to teach Maths using other approaches was met with resistance. Now she actually enjoys what she is learning and is able to grasp Maths concepts quickly and easily, then move on to the next lesson. Being an auditory learner, she really enjoys the video lessons but also benefits from the coloured blocks and the build, write, say approach. I would highly recommend the Maths Australia program to other parents.


Jen Muir Home Educator

I am a homeschooling parent of two primary aged children. We’ve been using the Maths Australia program for a few months or so now, and have noticed a distinct difference in the kids’ attitude toward maths as well as their confidence in doing the work - which both together, have seen them increase their mastery of maths in leaps and bounds. I am so glad to have found this useful tool, that grows with us, and would absolutely recommend to anyone involved in the education of children.


Libby Cotton Home Educator

I'm a homeschool Mum and have been using the Maths Australia program for the past 2 years. My daughter has learned so much in that time I'm amazed. I've even learnt new ways of doing maths too (that weren’t taught when I went to school!) She loves using the blocks and so do the younger kids! Thanks Maths Australia!


I’m a homeschool mum and have used the Maths Australia program for my special needs kids. It's been so good to be able to teach them in a way that makes sense to them – plus its helped us catch up to a good level with our maths! Thankyou.


Yvette Rollan Homeschooling Parent

We home school our four children and our eldest starts Grade 8 next year. We’ve used the Maths Australia program for years now - its a great program that has a clear teaching method and reinforces each stage. The Integer Blocks are great for all stages of maths and the kids love them. I've come across a lot of families looking for more in their program and I always recommend this program!


Heather Homeschooling Mum

My daughter has gone from passionately HATING maths and mentally shutting down at the mere mention of it, to actually asking for maths problems to be given to her in her free time - for fun! It has been wonderful to see the change in her opinion of "Maths" and to watch her actively engage in maths problems with enthusiasm! I highly recommend the Maths Australia program and very grateful for the wonderful tool its been in the process of making her learning and understanding of maths a solid one.


Amie Baird Homeschooling Mum

We have been homeschooling with Maths Australia for 8 years... and still love it! My oldest is working in the advanced levels. I appreciate the emphasis on mastery, which builds a good foundation for higher maths and for working diligently. I also like the way more difficult concepts are introduced in a simple context, and then built upon as the student progresses. Thanks so much!


Rachelle Steven Homeschooling Mum

In 2005, we began homeschooling. We've been using Maths Australia ever since for each of our 7 children. Our youngest has just started and proudly finished his first workbook!


Toni Learning Support Teacher

Research reveals that most children who are visual learners struggle primarily with math bonds, due to a lack of emphasis (especially tactile) on these basics. I find most teachers assume that getting children to do lots of colouring in or writing - paperwork - is what visual learners need. They fail to understand that a visual learner needs to incorporate tactile emphasis in order to have reciprocal benefit. The Maths Australia program does this effortlessly, and we have thoroughly enjoyed using the program.


Daniel Martian Maths Teacher, Busselton High School

I’m finding the Maths Australia program is easy to present and adapt to our student needs. With just 20 minutes a day, our students are getting great results!


Sonia Attwood Parent

Teaching "time" with the manipulatives made so much sense to my little one. It's so much easier than anything else I've used before. The Maths Australia program is great!


Kerry Norton Homeschooling Parent - Learning styles

I’m a home schooling parent. I have a 6 and a 9 year old and they have very different learning styles. Maths Australia covers all of the learning styles so it works for us. My daughter who has dyslexia also likes the workbooks better than the ones from school because the pages are not crowded, and are uncluttered. Very easy to teach too!


Rachel Home Educator

We have been learning with the Maths Australia program for almost five years, and it has proved to be a wonderful approach to Math for our family. I especially appreciate the emphasis on mastery, and have seen each of my children grow in their confidence as they are taught the 'why' of Math, not just the 'how'. The emphasis on place value, mastery, and the hands on approach with manipulatives are the core strengths of the Maths Australia program. I'm so thankful for this program, and also the support from Maths Australia we have had along the way when we have had doubts or needed direction. Thankyou!


Kathryn Homeschooling Mum

I'm a new homeschool mum, with our eldest just starting schooling this year. I have no teaching background and 3 other smaller kids to care for. The Maths Australia program is a perfect fit for us. It is all explained so simply that I can fit the small amount of prep time into my busy life.


Sandra Warfe Homeschooling Mum

My kids are enjoying learning! I have four kids and the way the Maths Australia program teaches with an individualised, sequential approach really works... it means they all can be doing maths and be on different levels, but I still know that they're learning it properly!


Angela Homeschool Mum

We have been using this program successfully for a few years now and I love the mastery approach and the simple no-distractions format. We used the placement test and it was spot on for my kids to review, consolidate then move forward. Sometimes we only do a couple of the worksheets for a lesson if it is very easy for them, more if they need practice.

Another feature I like is that measurement and geometry are taught sequentially alongside the appropriate number concepts, such as calculating area when you have learnt multiplication. And the Australian student books all use Aussie money and metric measurement.


Rachel Home Educator

We have been learning with the Maths Australia program for almost five years now. I especially appreciate the emphasis on mastery, and have seen each of my children grow in their confidence as they are taught the 'why' of Math, not just the 'how'. I’m nearly 40years old, and I find myself wishing I had had the opportunity to master Math with this method! But I get to be involved now as I learn alongside my children as they homeschool - it's great!


Sheridan Forster Homeschooling & Schooling

My son loves the Maths Australia videos and his student workbook… so much that he doesn’t want to go back to school! So we’ve negotiated 2 days at home and 2 days at school. Thankyou - you guys rock!


Christa Forsyth Specialist Intervention Teacher

The training I have received through Maths Australia and the Total Maths Mastery package has been invaluable! I wish I had this knowledge from 20+ years ago when I did teacher training.

I feel so much more confident in teaching mathematics from primary to secondary level. The training helped me to learn the language of maths, to see clear demonstrations of how to teach lessons with the integer blocks, to try the methods myself, discuss what I was learning with colleagues and ask questions of an expert. I was able to apply what I learned right away with my students, and if I had a query after the training about how to teach a particular concept, the Maths Australia team has always been quick to lend assistance.

I have recommended Maths Australia to both teaching colleagues and home school parents and I will continue to do so!


Jennifer R. Learning Support Teacher

Kids are loving the program and one of our boys who has an intellectual impairment, started correctly adding up scores on Masterchef the other night - much to his parents surprise and delight!!! Great to see that he has held the mastered the skills and is using them - Happy Days!!!!


Honnie Harris Homeschooling Mum

I have started homeschooling this year with my eldest son for ‘prep’ so we have started with the red level this year. I love the videos! They are so helpful to explain it clearly when I don’t quite have the words haha. I wish I got to learn maths this way! My son is enjoying his maths lessons and learning a lot. I couldn’t ask for a better maths curriculum 🙂


Paula Vidilini Homeschooling Mum

I have 3 children who have used the Maths Australia program from Preschool up to Year 10. All of them have enjoyed the clear video lessons, followed by the practise worksheets and tests. They mark the practise worksheets themselves and I mark the tests. The children all work independently on their maths and because the video explanations are so clear, rarely do they come to me for assistance. A great program for us!


Ursula Stone Homeschooling Mum - Tutor - Dyslexia

I have found that using “maths mastery” as an approach, my daughter understands and retains information much better. She has auditory processing disorder and easily gets distracted or doesn’t comprehend – but the Maths Australia videos are simple to understand and because she is a tactile and visual learner, the manipulatives are perfect! I make sure she has time to process what she’s been taught, comprehend and get it right. Using Maths Australia’s techniques of teaching mastery, I’ve used the same teaching method through her other subjects and it works quite well!


Tracy Kelly Homeschooling Mum

We wanted a program that allowed our 3 kids to develop maths in a mastery system. The kids flew through the upper primary levels in a very short space of time with the Maths Australia way, which was really easy to pick up and run with. The videos are full of great content and the teachers manual is always on hand if we needed to go back and clarify something.

It’s a very worthwhile investment!


J Horwood Homeschooling Mum - Aspergers, Dyslexia, Dyscalculia

My daughter is 15 and has been diagnosed with Asperger, Dyslexia & Dyscalculia. Her long term memory is quite exceptional, her short term memory is terrible. For years we were unable to determine exactly why she was unable to grasp mathematics. When she started grade 9, she began using the Maths Australia program to try and re-establish a base of maths in her brain. The multi-sensory, videos and way maths is taught to mastery has worked and now she is mastering multiplication and is retaining the majority. Maths no longer stresses her as it used to. Thank you Maths Australia.....there is a bright future for my child.


Cathy Newby Homeschooling Parent

From the very beginning, my kids have seamlessly transitioned over to Maths Australia's way of doing Maths. They loved the easy-to-watch videos and through using all of the multi-sensory resources, my kids got to move through the levels their own pace. After using the Maths Australia program, my kids started getting 90-100% right for each lesson test right up to high school and my eldest did his Bachelor of Science and received 94%. So for us, the proof has been in the pudding.


Jennifer R Learning Support Teacher, All Saints Anglican School

Kids in our class are loving the program - one of the boys, who has an intellectual impairment, started correctly adding up scores on Masterchef the other night- much to his parents surprise and delight!!! Great to see that he has held the skills taught in class using proper methodology and is using them - Happy Days!!!


Taya Joppich Home Educating Family

As a home educating family, we have been using Maths Australia for about 9 years and for all 4 of our children. We love how sequential the lessons are, as they build upon previous knowledge learnt. The videos do a great job at thoroughly bringing understanding to each concept. The manipulative blocks help to bring concrete examples to abstract topics and our children have a really solid grasp of the mathematical concepts they've learnt. So many people seem to flit from resource to resource trying out a whole range of curriculums, and yet we have never been tempted or had need, to try anything else. Maths Australia has been a great fit for our family! Thank you 🙂


Kate Craig Home Educator

We loved mastering addition and subtraction through using the blocks, video lessons and workbooks. My youngest has finished the first level and we’re all looking forward to the next level! He can’t wait to learn more!


Educator

A success story from this morning - one of my students came to me HATING Maths. They now beg for the maths part of our session! Last week they saw a vertical addition sum and freaked out and said it was scary. So we did a lesson on place value street, until they were explaining happily about the units needing to move next door into a new house, and so on.

This week, I stepped them through vertical addition, and then vertical addition with carrying, using the Maths Australia I-CRAVE Methodology. By the end of the lesson, they said it was ‘addictive’, and were doing the abstract sums with carrying in units and tens, without the blocks! They had a huge smile on their face, and were begging for more!


E H Home Educator

Thank you so much! We received the Purple Brighter Maths Book today and it was absolutely amazing. The timing couldn’t have been more perfect, as we started back homeschooling today, and it was the very first work my daughter began with. She really likes the new Brighter Maths book very much! A big thank you to your whole team. The way the exercises are set out in the Brighter Maths workbooks is even better... there’s more room to work, the layout is clear, and the examples are easy to follow. We’re so grateful and excited to continue using it!


Jade Learning Specialist

Esther’s Professional Development session left me feeling refreshed, inspired, and eager to embark on this new chapter in my teaching career.

The resources, thought-provoking insights, and practical strategies she shared gave me the tools and confidence I need to transform my classroom into a vibrant hub of maths exploration!

Thank you, Esther, it was a fantastic day of development and learning.


Bernadette Bayer

I just wanted to say that we have been using the Maths Australia program for a couple of months now. I was initially hesitant because of the $ outlay but I wanted to say what a massive improvement this program has made to my 9 year old son who struggles with dyscalculia and memory issues. I feel like he finally has a toolbox of tools in his head and I can see in his facial expressions when he opens it up and finds the right method to use. He's never been able to retain math strategies before this. It's been so wonderful to see his confidence improve and actually start enjoying maths. I just wanted to say thank you!


Terri Nesbit-Foster Head of Learning Enrichment, St. Joseph's Nudgee Junior College

We have had such outstanding success in using the Maths Australia program once our Teacher Aides were trained by Esther White of Maths Australia. Just four weeks into explicit instruction, our Year 4 student who was previously unable to say numbers, is now fluent in identifying each number and is gaining confidence and enjoyment of maths. It is fantastic to see these results from teaching maths explicitly with such a wonderful manipulative.


Nicole Jackson Homeschooling Mum

My eldest has found maths a subject she is easily discouraged by. We trialled numerous other curriculums before finding the Maths Australia program. Initially these other options seemed to be easier, they were glossier, more colourful, inherently less confronting for a child to try. However, only the Maths Australia program enabled her to visualise what she was trying to achieve in solving maths problems, and gave her the memory tricks (often humorous!) to be able to recall what was needed in a given situation. As for myself, even after completing an engineering degree, I have learnt about what the equations physically represent that I've never understood before!


F Adams Homeschool Mum

Used Maths Australia for her two daughters and then with her son who has Autism. She enjoys teaching it and her son enjoys using it. She recommends it to other home-schoolers and says it is the "best maths program" and has been working with mathematics over the past 20 yrs (had used Singapore Maths before). Very happy with the Maths Australia program!


Cheree Roffel Homeschooling Mum

I am a homeschooling mum & I love the Maths Australia program. I have been using the Maths Australia program for 5 years with my two daughters from the red level to the blue level & they are both understanding maths much better than I ever did at their age. Thanks so much!


Denise Kelleher Homeschooling Mum

I have been homeschooling for 21 years and have used the Maths Australia program for most of that time. The tutorial videos are brilliant and the talk on place value street is ground breaking. The hands on approach helps you to really lay down such a great foundation for the unwavering pattern that maths is. So glad I found this curriculum.


Angela Patton Homeschooling Mum

I was introduced to Maths Australia by a friend who had homeschooled for a long time (& used & loved their program) & was my biggest support as we begun our homeschool journey. Initially, I bought another maths program thinking that my son was in a higher grade at school and should just keep going with the spiral learning approach that schools use (even though he wasn't really understanding it) But we weren't happy and after reassessing, we purchased the first level of the Maths Australia program and made a start. We really haven’t looked back & we both love it! My son just gets it! He loves watching the videos & time after time it is explained in a way that just makes it so clear. I know we will continue to keep using this wonderful program!


Cindy Charden Homeschooling Mum

I recommend this program to everyone who is having issues with math or just wanting to find a good program. The hands on Manipulatives have made math easier to understand. We will use this program to its end!


Student at Athena School School Student

I love the Maths Australia program! These books really give you the mastery of a maths subject. This has really changed my point of view about fractions ten-fold. I used to have fractions because they were "too complicated" but the fractions level has really helped me push through that. I hope I have even more wins like this one for the next levels. Go Maths Australia!


Lisa Bumpstead

My son was in grade 4 when we first started. He had been in the lowest maths stream at school for years. His school reports showed declining maths performance. This was of great concern as he is challenged by reading and writing due to dyslexia and has Development Coordination Disorder.

It was a structured approach with actual lessons. I had heard that other families in the dyslexia community had used the Maths Australia program with success. My son is now in grade 5 and in the enriched maths class at school. His confidence grew after just completing the first book which was multiplication. His experience of success is now producing more success. It has changed my sons trajectory.

Anyone who is able to put time into helping their child progress. The program structure factors in working memory issues so it is ideal for children with a SLD.


Robyn Munns Teacher - Homeschooling Mum

I am a High School Maths Teacher and also homeschooling my kids. I have a great deal of confidence in the Maths Australia Program due to the succinct explanations, clear reasoning and multi-sensory (show and feel) aspect to it. My third son is up to the advanced levels and just about to begin - we are both looking forward to it!


Lora Adams Homeschooling Mum

As a homeschool family it’s hard to choose a maths curriculum with so many different options available. However the proof is in the pudding, as they say! My husband did the Maths Australia program for his homeschooling and has always been so confident with maths. We wanted our kids to have that same confidence (something I personally missed out on and look forward to gaining along with them). We’ve just completed the first two levels and so far, SO great!


Teresa Homeschooling Parent

We are enjoying the Maths Australia program immensely. SO nice to have a visual and real life maths for our home education. Sometimes l just need to have things set out easily for me instead of having to think of ideas for every subject and the Maths Australia program is perfect for that.


Kerrianne Homeschooling Parent

We are having great success with the Maths Australia program. My children are visual learners so it suits them both. Even I concord my arch nemisis, long division! Woo hoo! I must say I was quite worried how I was going to teach it when I didn't understand it. Watching the lesson-by-lesson video and reading the instructions really didn't help much but hubbie watched and read and explained it and what do you know, after all these years I got it. We are having a great deal of success, so will not deviate now.


Kerry Homeschooling Mum

I am a home educating mum of two children with very different learning styles and learning disabilities. I love that the student workbook is set out so spaciously. My kids don’t get distracted by pictures or overly crowded pages. Thankyou for making it easy for them to achieve and enjoy maths!


Anna Maria Gulia Homeschooling Mum

Our children have grown up studying maths with Maths Australia. We have really enjoyed it, and the children have learned so much more using this method – than any other maths program. Thank you.


Suzie Andric Teacher - Home Educator - Dyslexia, Dyscalculia

As a teacher and a home educator, I enjoy implementing this program at home with my children and with my students at school for the past 3 years. The program supports systematic, explicit instruction that teaches mastery through multisensory learning. This is a brilliant way for students to learn maths especially for students with learning difficulties such as dyslexia and dyscalculia.


Natalya Practicing MSL Educational Specialist + Multi-sensory Maths Specialist

I am teaching numeracy intervention privately with a couple of students and it is going really well so far. I have been working with one of my students from the time I completed the Maths Australia Total Maths Mastery training, and she has greatly improved in her confidence with mathematics, loves her lessons with me, is achieving well at school and recently received a merit grade in mathematics. I have found it challenging at times using this approach remedially (I wish I could have taught them this way from the start), but being able to "see and feel" what they are doing as they do it has been powerful.


R Parella Leader in Numeracy

I’ve just completed ‘Foundations of Maths’ Online Training Course. I’m so excited about teaching maths as a language and using your CRA manipulatives! Finally, a pedagogy is explained and demonstrated that is systematic and that teachers can make sense of in mathematics – thank you!!


Melissa Adamson Homeschooling Mum

Utilising the Maths Australia program in our homeschool has been instrumental in helping our children gain a thorough understanding of mathematical concepts. Maths Australia's multi sensory approach incorporating methodical practice and frequent review, as well as the opportunity to demonstrate mastery by 'teaching back' the concepts, has resulted in our children becoming confident and competent maths students. I recommend this curriculum highly!


Natasha Homeschooling Parent

I have been using the Maths Australia program for 10 years. The instructional videos and teacher's manuals are so easy to understand! I could easily learn each concept and pass the knowledge onto my children with minimal preparation time, well planned lessons and systematic reviews. My oldest son is now finished school and studying to be an electrical technician. The Maths Australia program gave him a solid grounding in the maths he needs to know in his career and he continues to use it in his profession


Jodie Jayatilaka Home Educator

We’ve been using the Maths Australia program for all six of our children. Honestly, we really enjoy our Maths lessons first thing every day! It's also worked for teaching multiple children at multiple levels. I love the consistent approach across the years and mastery expectation


At Djidi Djidi Aboriginal School, we are seeing fantastic results with using the Maths Australia program, and the children are all loving learning hands-on. It's simple to teach and the consistency of the colours and numbers is helping kids who otherwise may never have understood maths at all.


Roz Homeschooling Mum - Cerebral Palsy

I have 5 children and this is the best maths tool we have ever being lucky enough to use. I have a 9 yr old daughter who has cerebral palsy and just last year learnt to count to 100 using the Maths Australia program. She is loving it and it's hard to tear her away from maths. Using the blocks has made it fun and the teacher pack teaches you how to teach your child.


Cath Homeschooling Parent

I've used the Maths Australia program as a homeschooling parent for a number of years now,. The use of the manipulatives really helps to make sense of what is happening with the numbers. My youngest daughter particularly enjoyed learning “subtraction with borrowing” using the blocks. It just makes sense.


Kathryn Ottaway Homeschooling Mum

Our son is mastering concepts, and mastering them quickly! It has actually given him confidence and excitement to learn and pursue mastery in other subjects that he is finding more difficult. He even calls the extension activities and test book "fun maths learning" and looks forward to proving what he can do without mummy at the end of each unit. I'm also excited to enhance and hone my own maths skills alongside my children as they get into the more advanced books!


Nerida Head of Primary

I wanted to take the time to write this, as ​both a parent​ and school leader, about the success ​we are having at our school as a result of your training, manipulatives, and program.

​Firstly​, my child is in Prep. I have been astounded by their growth in ​maths this year using ​y​our multi-sensory maths program. At the start of the year they could count to 30 and by the end of Term 1 could count to 100 with ease, using ​your terminology that teaches place value​. We continue to be in awe of their abilities​ that are based on understanding. They are mentally calculating addition sums at the age of 5! Thank you so much for this program and for giving our child a flying start and a love for Mathematics!

​In regards to the primary school, ​your training ​has really helped us to understand the 'why' in the way the program is taught, and none of the teachers have strayed from it. We find that the very simple start to each ​l​esson really helps the students to understand ​i​t and ​to gain the foundations they need to solve problems in all ​mathematical areas (addition, subtraction, fractions, decimals etc).

Honestly, we think the program is perfect. I wouldn't change a thing!


Tanya Thomas-Tong Homeschooling Parent

I’m a parent who’s been using the Maths Australia program for the last 3 years for our maths homeschooling curriculum. I’ve found it very thorough, the kids find it easy to use and the older ones can even self direct their own lessons. Plus, we all learn quickly and easily by watching the video lessons – they are super simple to understand. I would recommend this curriculum to everyone.


Soong Leng Ho Homeschooling Mum

I really appreciate the instructional videos that give clear instructions on understanding the math concepts being taught. The student workbooks give ample practice questions and systematic review at regular intervals so my daughter doesn’t forget what she’s learnt. We also use the online resources for drills and extra worksheets when more practice is needed. We love the Maths Australia program and will be continuing to use it as our main maths resource for years.


Lisa Bailey Home Educator

We are a homeschooling family of three and have been using the Maths Australia program since Day One! It has clear instructions in the teacher manual and video lessons, very easy to use, and the blocks make it so simple to explain math problems. Highly recommend this program!


Nicole Jackson Homeschooling Mum

We're using the Maths Australia program because we can't find any other program that teaches how to use maths in the real world!


Michelle Du Preez Home Educator

We're a homeschooling family with two kids using the Maths Australia program. We started at the beginning of our journey and completed the first level, then decided to try another programme - which was a complete disaster! We returned early this year back to the Maths Australia program and have since seen a remarkable improvement! It's not just for those that struggle with math either, it's for anyone. We work at the kids pace and as we are using it as a stand-alone curriculum, the kids end up doing more than I’m happy with. It's great to know that at the end of this entire syllabus they can be confident, successful mathematicians!

Your awesome program has been a lifesaver for me as a homeschooling parent! My daughter loves it and she just gets it straight away. We love that it’s multi sensory and this is something that I think a lot of Aboriginal educators such as us will love too. We have tried two other programs that didn’t work but this one we will stick with for a long time!


Lydia Leed Homeschooling Parent - Dyslexia

I’m a home schooling parent. I have a 6 and a 9 year old and they have very different learning styles. Maths Australia covers all of the learning styles so it works for us. My daughter who has dyslexia also likes the workbooks better than the ones from school because the pages are not crowded, and are uncluttered. Very easy to teach too!


Micah Homeschooling Dad

I love this program! I don’t have to push my kids through the lessons – they can take each lessons at their own speed. I love the blocks that really solidify what has been learnt and the Instruction videos are an invaluable resource. My kids have excelled in maths using the Maths Australia program!


Rochelle Homeschool Mum

The Integer blocks are incredible to teach maths with! I have been using them with my older son with fantastic results. I will be recommending the Maths Australia program to everybody and plan to use it when my younger children start school as well. They are already exploring the integer blocks and getting them out to play with of their own accord - maths in play! Seeing the happiness in my son's face when concepts, which were once elusive, click in his mind is priceless.... Thankyou!


Claudia Walwyn Homeschooling Mum

I first started the Maths Australia program with my eldest child when she was 7, having been totally confused and left behind by the standard school maths books. As soon as we switched to the Maths Australia program, I saw her start to gain the firm foundation in maths that she had been lacking. I then had both of my younger children start, and have loved it all the way through. It's such a simple, easy to use curriculum, which enables kids to gain confidence and mastery at their own pace. We absolutely love it and I plan to continue all the way through high school!


Kim Hol Tutor - ex High School Teacher

As a former High School Mathematics teacher and longtime maths tutor, I could see straight away the benefits of the Maths Australia method. A true benefit is 'seeing' the maths in action with the blocks - really helps students understand the concepts. Teaching students the basics really sets them up to understand mathematics and it builds their understanding and confidence as they move through each level. Maths Australia teaches the why before the how - I even find myself blown away sometimes when I see something that I never knew the why of what we did, I just knew how to do it (I learnt a formula). Forever grateful.

We were recommended the Maths Australia program a few years ago, and have now recommended it on to other families!! All three of our primary school aged children are doing really well with this program, and now enjoy doing maths! The hands-on manipulatives make their learning so much easier.


Jackie Verrico Homeschooling Mum

The Maths Australia program is a great all-ages program that we have used for many years for home schooling our children. The tutorial videos are very handy for explaining some of the more difficult concepts, particularly for secondary school. The problems and worked solutions are clearly presented and easily understood. Great resource. Thankyou.


Narelle Hose Specialist Tutor

The Maths Australia program is brilliant. It encourages the student to use all of their senses, providing the opportunity to link information through hands-on manipulatives to what is already known and understood - and to be able to use it in everyday life!

Multisensory Maths Training transformed our numeracy outcomes.

Multi-sensory Maths training with Esther White from Maths Australia has completely shifted the way our teachers teach maths.

Prior to this training we found we were moving away from manipulatives too quickly when teaching maths but did not know how to support our students to embed the use of manipulatives in their practice. We completed Maths Australia's 'Foundations of Maths' training and learned the CRA (concrete, representational & abstract) approach where students were being shown clearly why mathematical procedures occur the way they do in a hands-on way. Along with Esther's clear instruction and ICRAVE* Maths Methodology, we have been able to solidify their understandings and address misconceptions, as well as gradually move to a more formal and explicit written approach to solving problems.

Our site also completed the 'Multiplication & Division' and 'Fractions, Decimals & Percentages' training, where our middle and upper primary teachers gained further understanding in using manipulatives to progress a student and teach these more complex skills. Our teachers gained confidence in delivering lessons and developing student understanding by showing them how these methods worked (and not just following a rote learned rule).

There have been high levels of engagement in lessons across our site when using the manipulatives, with our youngest students (receptions) utilising concepts like decimal street to build, name and record 3-digit numbers with ease. This solid understanding of place value concepts has set our foundation students up for success. I cannot recommend using multi-sensory manipulatives and undergoing Maths Australia's Multi-sensory maths training enough to help support student understanding in all areas of Mathematics.


Rachel Batterham Homeschooling Mum

We love the Maths Australia program, and always recommend this program in our homeschooling circles. Our 4 children have thrived with the emphasis on place value, mastery, and being hands on with their learning using the manipulatives. I also appreciate the support from staff at Maths Australia. We now have budding mathematicians who are confident in their approach, and who ENJOY their math lessons. Thank you!


Karen Galvin Homeschooling Mum

We switched to the Maths Australia program when one of my sons was struggling to understand maths about 4 years ago. The manipulatives and sequential building of maths skills has helped him amazingly and now all my children use the Maths Australia program. Attention to detail and accuracy have been one of the many benefits we have discovered. Thank you!


Abigail

The Maths Australia program has been an integral part of our children’s education. My two eldest children used Maths Australia all the way through school. Today, my eldest is in his final year of Medicine, and my second child is in their third year of Business and Commerce at university. For our family, the results speak for themselves. The strong mathematical foundations and confidence they developed through Maths Australia have clearly supported their academic success. I can genuinely say the program worked exceptionally well for us.


Heather Beames Homeschooling Mum

Maths Australia was recommended to us when we first started home schooling over 10 years ago and all of our four children have all really enjoyed it. We have looked at other programs but nothing has ever come up to the standard of this program. Thankyou.

All of my tutored maths students use Maths Australia's extensive maths program. It is a wonderful programme, and I have 100% success rate to date. I sing its praises far and wide. Thankyou Maths Australia!


Karly Holcomb Homeschooling Mum

I have been using the Maths Australia program with my oldest son. It has worked really well for him - I love how it makes maths so easy to teach. I’ll be starting my daughter on it next year too. I know how much she would benefit from this teaching method. I would definitely recommend it to others.
