remedial math
Basic number skills
Remedial math is mathematics instruction designed for students who haven't mastered concepts typically learned earlier—usually basic arithmetic, fractions, or algebra.
The term appears most often in college contexts, where students must complete remedial courses before taking credit-bearing math classes: She spent her first semester in remedial math.
The label carries some stigma, implying a student is behind where they should be.
