This is the problem right here. The solution is that Maths teaching needs to be brought online Duolingo/Brilliant style (with in person teacher support obviously). We can completely standardise the curriculum and do A/B testing to find out what is the most efficient way to get the information into students’ heads.
The data could be analysed further to see if there were certain mathematical learning styles (I suspect there are). One cohort of students might be better off on the visual/geometry heavy track, one might be better on the abstract track etc.
It should be initiated at the national government level and mandated to use in schools but the actual building of the application should be contracted out to a company from Silicon Valley/Roundabout/$COUNTRY_TECH_HUB.
Until this happens or something similar we’re just going to continue having this grossly unequal and unfair state of affairs where access to good mathematics education is complete geographical potluck for anyone whose parents can’t afford tuition. The amount of wasted potential is staggering.
