Building Math Confidence: A Self-Paced Curriculum Using Intuitive Strategies is for anyone who struggles with math or wants to build their math intuitions. This book teaches you intuitive, common-sense tools that even the most math-anxious students can understand and apply to college-level math. As one of our adult math-phobic students once said, 'I can understand this! I can do it! How come no one ever taught it to me like this before?' Math is about relationships! The secret lies in learning to recognize these relationships, to organize them in ways that make sense to you, and to discover innovative ways to come to a solution. This book introduces you to intuitive strategies that are simple, clear, easy-to-understand, graphic, hands-on, and natural. You’ll learn how to tap into your own natural abilities to quickly and easily solve math problems. In addition, the book provides you with class-tested strategies for setups, organization, and problem solving. You’ll explore common patterns and specific question types, then build your proficiency with a 20-day study plan. The book includes access to our online site for more hands-on, interactive practice and rewards!
