Can timed maths practice help fluency without increasing pressure?
Timing can make speed and accuracy measurable, which is useful for fluency practice. But timed conditions can also affect performance and anxiety differently across learners, so the way timing is framed matters.[1][2]
Toku 如何運用這個原理
Toku uses short sprints as repeatable practice. The timer creates a consistent personal benchmark so your child can see changes in speed and accuracy across attempts.
