Coaching

What’s the difference between Parent Coach and Parent Coach + Math Coaching?

Parent-Coach is a program option available to learners in grades 4-8 only.

Within the Parent Coach program, there are two routes:

  • Parent Coach

  • Parent Coach + Prisma Math Coaching

How are they different?

If you choose to be your learner’s math coach (Parent Coach program without Prisma Math Coaching), your learner would still be able to participate in our Prisma math program by attending Numbers Labs (live math workshops led by a coach) and completing Prisma-assigned independent math learning.

As your child’s Math Coach, you would:

  • Support and monitor your learner’s Zearn (math platform) progress

  • Review your learner’s end-of-mission Final Checkpoints, providing feedback about their work and revisions as you would their project tasks

  • Keep track of the Zearn and Final Checkpoint badges they earn

If you choose Prisma Math Coaching (Parent Coach program plus math coaching), your learner would instead receive the supports listed above from a Prisma math coach. The Prisma math coach would provide math feedback and support. Your learner would also be eligible for Math Boosts (intervention sessions) and office hours with their Prisma math coach, as well as specialized courses like Number Studio and high school math courses (Geometry and beyond).
