The Geometry Tutor - 9 Hour Course Set - Learn By Examples!

Description

Geometry is frequently a frustrating subject for students because the problems almost always involve a complicated figure that intimidates the student. Compounding the problem is that Geometry involves definitions that make things seem harder than they really are. The Geometry Tutor is a 9 hour course that takes things step by step so that no one gets lost. The definitions and theorems are presented with examples so that the student does not simply memorize the terms but rather he or she truly understands the material. Since each example problem uses a figure just as a textbook does, the student gains familiarity and confidence with reading figures, which is one of the main sticking points in this course. Finally, the Geometry Tutor is like a personal tutor in your home teaching you the logic behind Geometry that you can pause and rewind as needed.
