Math as a Second LanguageWhy wait for problems to crop up naturally? By the time young learners show obvious difficulties, much resistance and dislike may have built-up. Young learners who struggle with Math are subtly labeled by their teachers. Unfortunately, by the time many parents address this situation the child - and the school - is nearly or already decided against a Math & Science-based track.

Movement ArtsHow little do we appreciate the importance of Posture! It is the mystery factor which keeps us looking young and feeling happy. Without it we tire more quickly, lose focus more easily, and get irritated more often. Life's entire tenor is decided by the way we move, stand, and sit. And yes, improper muscle holding patterns are more easily addressed in youth. Bad posture should be stopped just as soon as it starts.

MSL Program for Elementary and High School
Oasis After School Programs offers mathematical assistance for elementary and junior high school children. Unlike conventional math tutoring, our goal at Oasis is to solve problems. We undertake a ConsultenCie-based approach to each child, helping them to understand their situation and make better decisions about Math. Of course, in the course of doing that we will assist them to understand this obscure, multi-cultural and multi-dialectical language.
MSL, or Math as a Second Language, is a style of teaching Math that begins with history and notation. We contextualise the objects that, typically in school, are simply shown to students, under the assumption that the smarter ones will get it. And this may be the case, but we know that many more will understand math, if proper attention was given to the notation of this language, which are an astonishing array of Greek and Roman letters, synonyms, and so-called hermaphroditic words - ones that can act like nouns or verbs, depending on context. Furthermore, we present the historical development of mathematical objects, so that students can glimpse the hundred-year history behind even the most overlooked sign.
