Why Micro Learning Works—And How We Built It Into SumoMath.com
Traditional math lessons often try to cover too much at once. Students get overwhelmed, concepts blur, and retention drops.Micro learning breaks lessons into small, focused chunks—typically 3–5 minutes per concept. Research shows it improves retention by up to 80% compared to long-form sessions. Why it works: Every video lesson on SumoMath platform is designed as

Too many students still leave math block unsure what the numbers mean. Visual models light the path, but number sense sticks only when kids put in the reps. That’s the heartbeat of SumoMath: daily microlearning sessions that keep practice short, focused, and doable inside a real classroom schedule. Teachers tell us SumoMath fits because it
