Signs Your 3rd Grader Needs Extra Math Support
- Skip-counts from the start for every times-table fact, like 7 × 8.
- Doesn't see how division connects to multiplication.
- Can shade 1/4 of a shape but can't find 1/4 on a number line.
- Mixes up area and perimeter.
- Times-table homework turns into a nightly battle.
These are common in 3rd grade — and the right support can make a real difference.
How We Help Your 3rd Grader
3rd grade is when multiplication, division and fractions all start — and times tables become the tool for everything that comes next.
Master it before moving on
Because every class is 1:1, the tutor doesn't move to division until your child understands what multiplication means, not just the facts.
Interactive lessons
On-screen arrays, fraction strips and number lines make multiplication and fractions something your child does, not just watches.
Tutors with a math or education background
Every tutor teaches live and 1-on-1.
Help with school homework
Your child can bring 3rd grade homework questions to class, and the tutor helps them work through those questions step by step.

3rd Grade Math FAQ
What will my 3rd grader work on with a TomoRise tutor?
A TomoRise 3rd grade math tutor helps with multiplication and division within 100, times tables, fractions, area and perimeter, rounding and two-step word problems, following the 3rd grade Common Core State Standards, in live 45-minute 1-on-1 lessons.
How do I know if my 3rd grader needs math help?
Common signs are skip-counting from the start for every times-table fact, not seeing how division connects to multiplication, trouble placing fractions on a number line, or mixing up area and perimeter. A free TomoRise demo lesson helps you see where your child stands.
Why are times tables such a big deal in 3rd grade?
Times tables matter in 3rd grade because division, fractions, area and 4th grade multi-digit division all depend on them, so a TomoRise tutor makes sure your child understands them, not just memorizes them. A child who knows 7 × 8 means 7 groups of 8 can still work out a fact they've forgotten.
How many lessons a week does a 3rd grader need?
Families can choose 1, 2 or 3 TomoRise lessons a week. After the free demo lesson, the tutor recommends how many lessons a week fit your child's level and goals.
My 3rd grader is already ahead in math — can TomoRise help?
Yes — TomoRise tutors can pick up the pace and add challenge, and if your child is ready, we'll move them up to 4th grade math lessons.
Can a TomoRise tutor help with 3rd grade math homework?
Yes — your child can bring questions from 3rd grade math homework to the lesson, and the TomoRise tutor will help them work through them step by step.
