Review & Description
This book brings you over 25 years of experience and wisdom in tutoring math for a fraction of the cost of a single math tutorial, and the eBook version is being introduced at a special bargain introductory price. The eBook has the same content as the print version, which has 408 pages. Success in mathematics is critical at every stage of a student's educational journey at school. Parents are eager to know how they can help their children with math, but express concern that they are already overstretched with work, family, and other commitments. Many parents also feel that they have themselves forgotten all but the most elementary math that they learned in school, and simply do not have the time to learn it all again. There is thus a sense of guilt and frustration, but this is really unfounded because there is no precedent for being able to recall much of the math covered in school if it has not been used for years. You may be surprised, despite being an overworked parent with a life, by just how much you can do to help your kids with math, without having to learn all the material again yourself. In this book, the author has written down what he has learned from over a quarter of a century of experience with tutoring and mentoring students in math. He shows you how you can help your kids improve their performance in math (from 1st grade all the way up to 12th grade) in a multitude of different ways, including mastering critical exam preparation techniques. Emphasis is placed on building intuition as a pivotal foundational factor for success in math that also has lifelong benefits. The book also covers how to get affordable tutoring help, and how to best leverage a limited tutoring budget. A principal goal of the book is that, without having to relearn all the math yourself, you will be empowered enough to make a significant difference to your child's success in math. The material is relevant for students of math in all countries (and the website associated with the book has a conversion table for those who are not living in the United States). The eBook has been carefully crafted to provide an optimized reader experience in terms of readability and aesthetics of math type and numerous cross-reference hyperlinks for enhanced convenience.
