At DLFA, this week’s math session turned the spotlight on BODMAS—bringing clarity, confidence, and a touch of creativity to the world of numbers. The lesson kicked off with real-world scenarios: splitting bills, calculating discounts, and decoding shopping receipts. These examples transformed abstract rules into relatable logic.
Confusion around brackets and operation order quickly gave way to understanding through visual aids, step-by-step breakdowns, and interactive problem-solving. One standout moment featured a complex equation solved with precision, followed by a clear explanation of the hierarchy: brackets, orders, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction.
Momentum built as the student began designing original math challenges, flipping the classroom dynamic and testing the tutor. This shift from passive reception to active creation marked a breakthrough in engagement and mastery.
DLFA’s approach to math tutoring blends structure with spontaneity, logic with laughter. When learning feels relevant and empowering, progress isn’t just measured—it’s celebrated.
