    I must teach an autistic girl.

    How does she think? What non-mathematical subjects is she good at or ok at? Why I mention this is because it may give an idea of how her mind thinks as to how to teach her basic maths in a way that she can grasp. Example with me and my Mum as we both differ in the way our minds think in...

    New on here from the UK I love numbers and words.

    Also from the UK but I think in pictures instead, so maths is a bit hit and miss. I either do awfully if I have to deep think as I have to think in patterns of dots, or if I can "Surface think" I do well. Last maths exam I had 100%. English.. Vocabulary is limited and other languages don't...
