Conquering Math Anxiety November 1, 2000 26 out of 28 found this review helpful
I found this to be an exceptional book. It provides excellent practical strategies to be successful in math. It covers everything from psychological/personal blocks that may hinder students from learning math to practical success strategies that students can apply immediately. I especially enjoyed the discussion on learning styles and the accomodations that can be used for better understanding of coursework. I found the chapters on positive self-talk, conquering test anxiety and study skills very helpful as well. Every math teacher should have this book on their shelf!
