School students need to learn mathematics, but it is not necessarily an easy subject to teach. The following strategies can be employed in teaching mathematics:. Explicit instruction clearly and directly tells students what they need to do and how to do it in an organized manner. This process involves guiding students by asking relevant questions, the teacher solving sample problems, and having students attempt to solve problems on their own. Students then work independently, check their answers, and review difficult problems.
