THE BASIC MATH WORD PROBLEM TUTOR - LEARNING BY EXAMPLE



The Basic Math Word Problem Tutor teaches students how to easily tackle basic math word problems. After students learn a math skill such as multiplication or division, many are frequently confused on how to apply these skills to solve word problems. Word problems present the problem to be solved in sentence form and in these types of problems students must pull the information out of the problem and decide the best way to solve it.

Each section is taught entirely by example word problems which help students learn these skills in the most efficient way possible. This program contains essential material to do well in Math as mastering word problems teaches the student how to think about the logic of a problem and decide the best course of action to arrive at the solution. These types of problems usually have many different ways to arrive at the answer and are more like problems encountered in the real world. These skills can be used time again in more advanced courses such as Pre-algebra and Algebra.

The Basic Math Word Problem Tutor Series is a complete 15 lesson series covering all of the core topics in detail.

What sets this series apart from other teaching tools is that the concepts are taught entirely through step-by-step example problems of increasing difficulty. It works by introducing each new concept in an easy to understand way and using example problems that are worked out step-by-step and line-by-line to completion. If a student has a problem with coursework or homework, simply find a similar problem fully worked on in the series and review for the steps needed to solve the problem.

Students will be able to work problems with ease, improve their problem-solving skills and understand the underlying concepts of Basic Math Word Problems.

This series is best used in order from Volume 1 through Volume 15
