Good with
Hello, would someone please tell me what's the difference between "good at sth." and "good with sth."?
For example: However, unless these children are also good with words and numbers, they will probably not do well in school examinations.
Thank you in advance.

Usually, 'good at' = 'good doing' and 'good with' = 'good using', but I suppose they are more often used synonymously.
