The first thing we must do to overcome math phobia is to recognize that math is orderly, predictable, and logical. There’s really nothing mysterious about it.

Mathematics is, after all, the study of relationships between quantities--numbers. In its essence, it’s a way of counting things.

Two will always be two, and four will always be four. The rules of math are far simpler than the rules of English, yet most of us speak and write with far more comfort than we feel when doing math. Put another way, math should be easy for you because you have already shown competence in something much more complicated and confusing than math will ever be.

The leaders of our public schools decided at some point that children in third grade would understand math quickly, if the textbooks explained math by using words the children did not understand. That makes about as much sense as trying to teach kids by saying, “You know that feeling you get after running a major international corporation for a few years? That’s the basis for today’s math lesson.”

This despicably stupid approach to teaching has made millions of American children feel stupid as they study math. This is how I felt, decades ago. You may have felt the same way. It’s clear to me now what distribution means and what associating means, and so you could explain to me math concepts in terms of “distributive” or "associative" properties, but attempting that with kids whose ages are in the single digits is preposterous.

This is what has set the stage for poor math performance in adults who would otherwise be adept at mathematical calculations. If math is hard for you, it's not your fault. But you can do something about it, thanks to this course.

In this course, we don’t use big words in some misguided attempt to impress administrators while leaving the student to twist in the breeze.

Nor do we even consider the complex gyrations that pass for methods of solving math problems. Those gyrations just about require a PhD in astrophysics to understand, and applying them to four-digit addition and subtraction is completely irrational. Using an irrational approach to teach the logic of math may fit well with the government way of doing things, but it’s not a way of accomplishing the goal of teaching math. Many of us have suffered math phobia as a result of such a mismatch, but that doesn't mean you have to suffer now. Help is here.

This course gives you the knowledge to correct that mismatch, overcome that phobia, and enjoy the power of being able to do practical math with ease.
