I write books
I have published a set of workbooks aimed at children with exceptionally weak number skills. The books rely on precision teaching, overlearning and the spatial visualization of number. They help children who struggle to become numerate. Parents, teachers or support assistants can act as the coach who delivers the program of learning.
