This is exactly why "core math" failed in the US. It's a fine system, but the teachers didn't understand it and don't know how to teach it. So it's widely seen as horrible instead.

core math is just a bad idea to begin with. I feel like it is not hard for adult to grasp but just counter-productive for kids to learn.
