Recenzijos

I highly recommend this comprehensive book for every neurodiverse learner working towards GCSE Maths. It provides valuable insight (for the learner and those working with them) into the challenges being neurodiverse can have on the acquisition of maths, but then offers essential tips on overcoming these challenges to achieve success. The study guide covers fundamental topics in a straightforward, easy to follow way with useful visual images and practical examples to aid understanding. A 'must have' resource. -- Catherine Eadle, The Dyscalculia Network This is a wonderful textbook. Packed to the brim with useful strategies and practical tips, it is aimed at those overlooked by more traditional styles of teaching. The focus on readers learning how and why a method works and the positive 'can do' attitude that permeates the whole text make the book an absolute boon to anyone who feels that maths is not for them. -- Sophie Goldie, textbook author, examiner and online learning resources developer A valuable addition to any maths teacher's bookshelf, this contains clear, strategic advice on a range of strategies to support learners, depending on the obstacles they face. Addressed to the learner, it also contains approaches for specific key topics, meaning learners can dip into the sections as they need to support their learning. This book is just what neurodiverse learners, their families and teachers need! -- Heather Davis, Independent Mathematics Education Consultant
