Screen vs. Paper Reading—Which is Better for Learning?
According to research, how students read—not just what they read—matters!
- Students who read on paper score higher on comprehension tests than those who read on screens.
- Reading on screens leads to skimming and lowered attention and retention.
- Reading on paper engages more senses, which boosts comprehension and recall.

Clayton Height Tutors Make Learning Math Enjoyable
Math is generally considered the toughest school subject. However, the reality isn’t that simple. According to poll results, more students enjoy it than despise it.
But love it or hate it, understanding math is a key part of not only school but also life. While students may never need to calculate the circumference of a circle, basic math skills such as multiplication, division, and percentages are used throughout life.
How South Surrey Clayton Heights Math Tutors Help Students Perceive Math Differently
Whether students perceive math to be easy or difficult influences their performance. Not surprisingly, parents’ perceptions strongly influence their child’s performance. A series of studies show that parental influence has the biggest impact on student attitudes, surpassing even teacher influence.
Basically, when students have a positive attitude about math at home, it translates to a positive attitude in school, which in turn, impacts math performance.
So how can South Surrey Clayton Heights math tutors help students and parents adopt a math positive attitude and work toward making it enjoyable?
Check out these tips from math tutors in South Surrey to change perceptions and build better math skills.
Nine Tips to Make Math Fun
- Don’t Give Up. Adopting a growth mindset is key to understanding that not everything comes easily and that working at something can bring rewards.
- Don’t Miss Class. Math is cumulative (concepts build upon one another), so missing one class can mean falling behind.
- Work With Friends. Friends can offer different ideas and approaches to solving complex problems, explain concepts differently, and share notes and strategies.
- Ask Questions. Speak up when a concept is not understood.
- Seek Solutions Online. Practise challenging problems online or with an app.
- Review Work. Analyze and understand mistakes to avoid repeating them.
- Build Basics. Keep working on the basic skills of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. These skills are the foundation, and feeling confident in these skills will translate into confidence in other skills.
- Play. Board games or apps can make learning more interactive than a textbook.
- Get Help. Seeking extra help at the first sign of struggle is key.

My child has been attending Oxford Learning Centre and has been getting much needed support in math and other subjects. My child has fun and looks forward to going to tutoring while learning and keeping on top of school work. Karen and the rest of the team have been awesome and totally supportive to our child's needs and I love how easy it is to communicate and engage with them. They take the time to meet with school teachers online and ask questions to stay on top of upcoming curriculum. They are flexible and understanding with schedule changes and accommodate extra help when it's needed. We couldn't be happier with Oxford Learning Centre and just wanted to say thank you to the entire team for supporting us the way you do!Manjit S.
My son missed an entire math unit due to illness and the tutors at Oxford taught him the unit and worked with him at his pace to help him get all caught up. He enjoyed the experience and it was seamless for me as a parent planning the scheduling and dealing with all the lovely staff.AJ M.
Best tutoring service ever. Very thankful. My 14-year-old started with Oxford Learning 9 months ago. He had difficulty with French, so we signed up for French lessons at Oxford Learning Clayton Heights. We had an excellent experience. The tutoring provided is very personalized, and they adjust to whatever is required at school. My child learned better with one specific teacher named Grace, so they always kept him with her. She was amazing. My son excelled in his French tests, thanks to Grace, and he also enjoyed the lessons. When he had to miss a class, Karen always accommodated us and replaced the lesson. Karen has the right answer and solution to everything. She is also always there to listen and give recommendations for academic challenges. I am very, very pleased. It’s worth the money.Fatima M.
We have been working with Oxford Learning for 3 years now. I have never met anyone as passionate and dedicated to helping children with their learning as the owners, Scott and Karen. I tell all my friends and family about Oxford Learning and how much our son has improved in his studies since he started with the amazing tutors at the center. Keep up the great work, guys! I will recommend you 1000 more times to everyone I know!Margaret M.
