Finally Understanding Math |
|
I called you about six weeks ago concerning my children. I took your advice and administered the diagnostic test. They were unable to complete most of the test. I ordered Establishing the Basics for my 6th and 8th graders. I ordered Math Rescue for my 10th grader. Next week my 10th grader will complete Math Rescue and we will order the Algebra set. I plan to have my 8th grader work on Applying Mathematics in summer school so he can begin Algebra before 10th grade.
I'll be honest, the first day they used the dvd's they were a little bit critical. I quoted what you had told me, "I'm not in any competition with Stephen Speilberg. It's just an old man teaching math." I told them to stick with it and give it a reasonable chance. By the end of the week they were very happy. Your sense of humor helps make the lessons more appealing. However, the biggest draw to the kids is that they are really understanding the math. They realize that they are learning and they are encouraging me to purchase more of your products. I am so glad that the Lord directed us to your materials.
Thank you,
S.J.
