On Cloud Nine® Math Program
Visualizing & Verbalizing for Math

Mathematics is cognitive processing, thinking, that requires the dual coding of imagery and language. Imagery is fundamental to the process of thinking with numbers.
Students who received On Cloud Nine® Math instruction achieved significant improvements in math.
A few weeks can change learning math—for life!
Nicole has difficulty remembering math facts and she struggles with computation. She is overwhelmed by word problems and understanding new math concepts. She has been labeled with “dyscalculia” (a mathematics disorder).
A primary cause of math difficulties is an inability to create a gestalt image for the concepts underlying math processes. Individuals often attempt to memorize facts instead of being able to think, reason, and problem solve with numbers.
Individuals of all ages may experience an inability to image the concepts underlying math processes.
This causes weakness in:
- Learning math family facts
- Grasping mathematical relationships
- Following proper mathematical operations
- Solving word problems
- Estimating numerical values
- Understanding higher level math
The On Cloud Nine® Math Program stimulates the ability to image and verbalize the concepts underlying math processes. Concept and numerical imagery are integrated with language and applied to math computation and problem solving. There is emphasis on both mathematical reasoning and mathematical computation. Individuals of all ages learn to do and enjoy math.

Who can we help?
We work with children and adults of all ages and levels.
Some students come to us with general learning challenges or a previous diagnosis such as dyslexia or autism spectrum disorder.
Some students come to us to enhance their skills or to just make learning easier.
