Math Doesn’t Define Me: Teenage Dyscalculia Support
Teenagers with dyscalculia often face increasing pressure—from academic demands and daily responsibilities to growing independence in social and digital spaces. This course is designed to help teens and their families navigate these challenges with practical tools and positive, strengths-based strategies. At home, the course supports routines that make managing time, money, and homework less overwhelming. In school and further education, it provides guidance on securing accommodations, building maths confidence, and using assistive tools to stay on track.
It also addresses real-world challenges in public places—like handling public transport, shopping, or understanding schedules—and offers support for managing the number-driven aspects of social media, such as time tracking, likes, or in-game scores. With a focus on confidence, independence, and self-advocacy, this course empowers teens with dyscalculia to feel capable and supported wherever life takes them.
At Home: Building Everyday Confidence
Home is where teens with dyscalculia need to feel most supported. This module helps families create daily routines that reduce anxiety around numbers—whether it’s tracking time, managing allowances, or planning homework. You’ll learn how to turn everyday activities into low-pressure learning moments, support emotional regulation, and build a sense of achievement that encourages independence and self-belief.
At School: Navigating Support and Success
For many teenagers, school is where dyscalculia becomes most visible—especially with increased expectations around maths and exams. This module provides practical guidance on working with teachers to access accommodations, understanding learning plans like IEPs, and helping your teen manage schoolwork without shame. It also equips students with strategies for organisation, test preparation, and using tools like calculators or maths apps confidently.
In Further Education: Preparing for Independence
Transitioning into college, sixth form, or vocational education can be daunting for teens with dyscalculia. This module focuses on building the self-advocacy and problem-solving skills they’ll need to navigate a more independent academic environment. From managing course schedules to understanding how to access support services, students will gain practical techniques to thrive beyond secondary school with clarity and confidence.
In Public Places: Tackling Everyday Number Demands
Using money, reading maps, or catching public transport can be stressful for teens with dyscalculia. This module teaches simple, real-world strategies to handle everyday maths situations with less anxiety. Teens will explore how to use technology, visuals, and step-by-step processes to approach public settings more independently—building resilience and reducing frustration in practical, meaningful ways.
On Social Media: Navigating Digital Pressure and Time Awareness
For teens, social media is a big part of daily life—but dyscalculia can complicate how they interpret data, manage time, and engage with content. This module helps teens and parents explore safe digital habits, reduce comparison stress, and build awareness around time spent online. You’ll also learn how to manage features like scores, stats, and time-based filters that can feel overwhelming for number-sensitive users.
