EZ Math Workbook (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781637840702)

I HATE MATH.....There I said it! I bet thousands of students and parents have said it. When I was really having problems with Algebra in the 9th grade, my Grandmother ( who was a teacher) told me "math isn't hard if you understand it".

When I started my career in teaching math in Jacksonville Florida I soon learned that all the math books we had were lacking really good easy to understand instructions on explaining specific areas. Most of the math books did have good parts i.e. one might have a really good section or chapter on fractions but lacked in explaining decimals etc. I taught 7 years plus both sessions of summer school for 5 years at several junior and senior high schools. Each school had "adopted" different math books to teach from. This is where the idea of creating my own math book self guide stated. Over several years I started writing and explaining the different areas of math. It is my hope that this workbook helps students and parents who my be frustrated with "new" math and "common core" principles. In this workbook you will find every area that is covered in math for secondary students. The chapter problems are specially designed to address several levels of a students skill sets. I found that most students would fall into various levels....advanced; standard; basic and remedial. Each chapter problems and chapter tests are designed with levels of "difficult", "moderate" and " easy" problems. As a former math teacher and a parent of three adult children I really hope this book helps.
