In this study, a men-tutoring model was applied to four second-year high school students in mathematics learning counseling that could cultivate cognitive and affective domains. By observing and analyzing the cases, we examined the effects of mathematics learning counseling on students' mathematical attitudes and self-regulated learning ability. The results of mentoring applied to mathematics learning counseling had a positive effect on reinforcing prerequisite learning, improving self-regulated learning ability, strengthening mathematical strategies, and inducing learning motivation and maintaining interest. We are looking forward to that men-tutoring can be used effectively for students who have difficulty learning mathematics.

This study examined the effect of coaching based on private tutoring on students' learning ability and academic achievement in university mathematics education. Those in the coaching group showed statistical significance in academic achievement compared to those in the non-coaching group. In addition, the coaching was found to be more effective for those with poor academic performance or women than those with excellent academic performance or men respectively. Due to limitations on survey time and number of respondents, it is difficult to draw a general conclusion about the effect of coaching in university mathematics education. Still, it is significant that the study applies coaching as a method to teach students university mathematics for the first time and the results are in consistent with those of previous studies on other subjects.
