ALGEBRA
MELTDOWN!
We had been using Saxon for 3 years when my 15 year old
had her melt down last year. It took until mid-August to finish,
and we skipped the last 3 tests! We switched to VideoText and she
loves it.

LOVE VIDEOTEXT!
We have two daughters using VideoText right now. We tell
people about your course whenever the occasion arises and we talk to
a lot of people at conventions. You'd be surprised at how
often the subject of math comes up as we talk to people about art!

GREAT FOR
KIDS WHO HAVE STRUGGLED!
We use VideoText and my non-mathematically-minded daughter is doing
great. I have encouraged my daughter to do only half the practice
problems at a time (say, the odds, and the next day, the evens).
That way, if she is struggling with a concept, there are more problems
in the text for her to practice on. This is a great program for
kids who have struggled with math, especially Algebra, through other
texts.

STUDENTS
NEED LESS HELP!
We have been using the Algebra program since September and my daughter
loves it. She has not needed my help at all and we’re talking
about a child who needed help daily. Thank you, thank you, thank
you!!! Glad to know that you are here just in case we do hit a
bump.

LEARNING IS ENJOYABLE!
Thank you for such a superior product. It is so user friendly
and has made learning Algebra in our household enjoyable instead of
dreaded. Blessings to all of you!

STUDENTS FINALLY SUCCEED!
We finished VideoText Algebra this past week -- I did
a class with 5 students, 3 of whom were high school seniors who had
tried and hated almost every other Algebra program we had found.
VideoText Algebra worked! I can't say that any of those 3 loves
Algebra now -- but they certainly know way more Algebra then they
did a year ago! And they did it -- they finished Algebra 2 --
no small feat for any of them. Or for me!
As a result of our experiences this year, I
definitely plan to use Algebra VideoText with my younger students,
and I will recommend it highly to other homeschoolers I know.
Also, in case anyone cares, we did the entire program in 1 year with
those 5 students -- not a pace I would recommend, but it can be done! And
at that pace, the weakest student in the class was pulling high B's
and low A's on all the tests all the way through.

CANADIANS LOVE VIDEOTEXT, TOO!
I just wanted to
let you know that we are so incredibly happy with our Videotext
Algebra program (bought through your Canadian distributor, ADS). It
saved us a lot of headaches this past year. We will continue using
it next year (and with our other children). Many thanks for making
such a wonderful, easy-to-use program for such a difficult subject.

PREPARED FOR COLLEGE ALGEBRA IN
11TH GRADE!
My son did
modules A-C in 8th grade and D-F in 9th grade without any
supplemental materials, and he did great. Last year (10th grade), we
signed him up for a geometry class and his teacher was impressed
with his knowledge in Algebra. She told him that he must have had a
good Algebra II teacher! My son is now in 11th grade and taking
College Algebra at out local Community College and is doing very
well!

SCORED 34 ON ACT!
Thanks so much
for your wonderful Algebra and Geometry materials!! My senior just
scored 34 on his ACT and both of your math courses helped him do so
well.

VIDEOTEXT BUILDS CONFIDENCE!
Thank you so
much for creating VideoText Algebra. My 8th grader was struggling
with math and it was taking me an hour a day of one-on one tutorial
to help him with his daily lessons. With three other children and
one on the way I was dreading 9th grade Algebra.
We decided to try VideoText as a solution. After taking the time to
get my son started on the program he has whizzed along virtually on
his own and finished the Algebra 1 lessons in one semester. He is
motivated to finish Algebra 2 by the end of 9th grade. Now he looks
forward to math time. VideoText Algebra has been a blessing to the
whole family because I am freer to attend to other children and my
new highschooler is cheerful!
I have now used your program with my second highschooler and he did
even better with it. He loves math, and at 15 is now enrolled in a
Pre-Calculus distance learning class at Indiana State University. He
was very motivated by the independence he gained using the VideoText
curriculum, and now is motivated to try a class for college credit.
The VideoText curriculum was just what this teenaged boy needed to
find his niche and some desired autonomy. Thanks again.

PROGRAM IS A BLESSING!
I bought your
Algebra videos and we just love them! We are through the first two
modules and didn't know it could be so easy. Why didn't someone
have these when I was in school?! Thanks for making the higher math
easy for us to teach and learn.
We have now finished all of the modules with my first child and will
be using them with two more children next year. I am so blessed that
we have such wonderful resources available to us as homeschoolers.
Thanks for making it possible to be a successful and to feel
confident as a teacher of Math!

PARENTS LEARN TOO!
We have just finished Module A with our daughter, who is a junior.
She asked to be homeschooled this year, and we agreed to do it after
a lot of prayer and consideration. She has always tested well in
math, but not done as well in class as I thought she was capable
of.
We have been very pleased with VideoText Algebra. After a few
initial discussions about the necessity of doing the homework like
the examples, to facilitate comprehension, the lessons have gone
very smoothly so far. I am learning too! (I never took any math in
college, because of a traumatic experience in Algebra 2 & Trig. many
years ago.) Thank you for your program. I will recommend it,
whenever anyone asks.

EVERYTHING ELSE HAD FAILED!
In 2003 my daughter was in 11th grade. This was
her last ditch effort to accomplish Algebra. Everything else failed
when we got to the harder concepts. Her evaluator told her that she
could not continue to limp through Algebra. She then did very well
with VideoText Algebra. I only wish that I had bought Video Text
the year before when I looked at it at the convention, for my
daughter's sake. It is worth every penny! Having tried several
programs, including well-known traditional texts, my daughter said
she finally understood concepts that were not sufficiently explained
in the traditional texts. She now has confidence.

VIDEOTEXT HELPS YOUNGER STUDENT,
TOO!
My older son used VideoText for 2 years. My now
11 year old watched the videos along with him. My 16 year old said
from the beginning that Module A explained things to him in a much
clearer way than he learned when he was in the advanced math program
in public school, or when we tried Saxon Algebra ½. My 11 year old
has also been watching the videos and, even though he is not
currently doing Algebra, he is using the information that has been
covered in Module A to solve his math problems in his grades 4-6
math books.
