Head First 2D Geometry: A Brain-Friendly Guide

She needed help with her geometry. Her sister tried to give her the extra help but it wasn't going so well so I bought this one to see if it would help. She said she passed her geometry mid terms and got extra credit; not sure what she meant but the highlight here is that everyone was happy. So I guess this method works way better than the old "2 trains going in opposite directions". I liked the visuals, the coversational style and the examples from our lives today not the ones my grandparents led after WWII.

With honors geometry coming up in school this Fall, I had my son work through 2D Geometry over the summer break. Of course, he thought the idea of having to to do schoolwork over summer break was indication that he had been born of a Nazi father. However, once he caught the idea that this was going to happen, and that I'd be checking over his work each week, he gave the book a chance.And once he did, he was thoroughly engaged. Instead of a formal, class-like approach, the book showed him how human being get their brains to work solving problems... and oh, by the way, you learn some geometry principles as well.Each chapter's project connected him to something real, something he could imagine. Then, with very little prompting from me (mostly about showing his work line by line), he was off. The pacing was very accessible for him, the explanations both thorough and clear, and the visual layout appealing enough that the summer became HIS project, not mine.I'd recommend this treatment of geometry without hesitation.
