Maths Revolution

This book is an invaluable resource for teachers of reluctant or struggling mathematicians. It’s packed full of practical advice that teachers can directly apply in the classroom, including activities, scripted dialogues and teaching strategies. Julia has decades of experience working in education - in this book she draws her own experience and the expertise of others, as well as relevant academic research, to present a very clear and sensible analysis of what’s wrong and how we can fix it. This book is unlike any I’ve seen before – it focuses on a very specific but widespread problem and addresses it head on. It serves as a comprehensive guide on how to teach the teenagers and adults who are most in need of our support. This book is going to be highly beneficial to the teaching profession. -- Jo Morgan * @mathsjem - maths teacher and writer of resourceaholic.com *
