Do you have difficulties with fractions? Does your child panic when faced with fractions?
Fractions (and math in general) does create grief for many people.
Here is the solution!
The Complete Fractions Course teaches students how to handle fractions in a variety of settings and operations. The goal is to help students overcome any fear they may have when faced with a fraction in mathematics.
The lessons are designed to walk students step-by-step through each exercise and operation. They provide ample opportunity to practice within the lectures in addition to the numerous quizzes.
There are "scribble" lectures that show how to work-out problems with pencil and paper - revealing even more precisely the steps required.
Fractions are studied as independent units; however, they occur in geometry, algebra, ratios & proportion - and many other math arenas. Knowing what to do when faced with a fraction is essential at school.
Of course, fractions are used on the job and at home as well, so this course is useful for anyone who wishes to know more about what fractions are and how to work with them.
