DIFFUSE THE MATH BOMB: $13.95

Frustration, anger and a give-up-attitude are the norm when it comes to understanding math. The fuse burns and it burns quickly! It is quite common to see parents and students alike shut down at the first sign of confusion. And if you want to speed up the burning fuse, ask a student or parent to get help from a math textbook.

Burning…burning…burning…KABOOM!!!

This book was written to help parents and students put out the fire and diffuse the math bomb. So many times I’ve had students quit before they start. With simple explanations the lights come on. And amazingly, reasoning power follows along with the ability to solve new problems. Success comes from great teaching. This book is meant to teach!

"Diffuse the Math Bomb" is not your normal math book. In fact, there isn’t anything like it. It is NOT written with a truckload of problems to solve. Simple walk-through explanations and a handful of examples are given. That’s it. This is not a drill book. IT IS a resource that you can go back to again and again to help with math concepts and problems assigned at school.

I started this book several years ago…several times! Stopped, started, stopped, started, and stopped again! Only recently did I make the commitment to put something in the hands of parents and students that can help ease the pain and actually teach something that makes sense.
The book is aimed at grades 5 through 9. However, younger and older alike can appreciate much of its material.

Relax and don’t panic. The bomb has been disabled!

ALGEBRA HIGHLIGHTS MADE SIMPLE: $49.95

After writing Diffuse The Math Bomb, many readers asked if I had a book that would simplify algebra. Simply put, I did not. Having customers ask me about this subject motivated me to write again.

Algebra Highlights is my attempt at clarifying in an organized, progressive manner the concepts taught in algebra. It is my hope that this book will be easy to follow and understand. The written explanations and illustrations are my thoughts that have been put to paper after 25 years of teaching.

Every teacher tweaks, changes, edits, and “fine tunes” their presentations over the years. This book is me. It is my presentation. My goal: keep it simple and ultimately make algebra easier to understand.

COMING SOON -- Numbers & Value Investing - ($14.95)

Investing your money in an excellent company is essential, but value investors decrease risk and give themselves a margin of safety. They buy when companies go “on sale”. You can buy a quality BMW automobile, but if the selling price is $4,000 over the book price, you made a bad deal. The same is true with companies. The stock market will fluctuate daily and will offer you a price sometimes above and sometimes below the actual value of the company.

Jay Snyder gives us a 12-point checklist to look at to determine if we have quality. He then demonstrates 5 ways to help determine if the company is currently a bargain. The numbers are explained and he simplifies the process by walking through the numbers with four companies.
