About the Book

The Geometry Companion is a wonderful study guide for students who are taking Geometry. Each Chapter is separated into three columns. The first column contains a key concept. To the right of the key concept in the second column is an example demonstrating the concept. Then to the right of the example is the solution to the problem. Throughout this guide I share creative ways to learn and remember Geometry. These quick snapshots of the solid fundamentals of Geometry are focused, organized, and easy to understand. Before a student can solve problems abstractly, they need to have a solid foundation in the subject and this is what The Geometry Companion offers them. The Geometry Companion is great for: 1. Special education students. 2. ALL Geometry students. 3. Transfer student remediation. 4. Homebound students and their teachers. 5. Tutors. 6. First time Geometry teachers. 7. SAT review. 8. GRE review. 9. State Competency Exam review. 10. Geometry cumulative exams review. There is so much to remember in Geometry. The Geometry Companion helps bring everything together.


About the Author

I fell in love with geometry while doing my student teaching under Joyce Scott. Since then, I have been compiling creative and fun teaching strategies to help my students enjoy their experience while learning such an intimidating course. I have been teaching Geometry for twenty years at the high school level and I thoroughly enjoy it. I see Geometry all around me. Because of the difficulty and quantity of subject material, lots of my students come into my class with fear and trepidation. My challenge has been to turn this subject into a one they enjoy and can succeed in. The Geometry Companion has been very instrumental in focusing my students and alleviating some of their “math” phobias. My hope is that The Geometry Companion will be a tremendous source for teachers, students, and those preparing for SATs and GREs. I have been very blessed to see the results from students who have succeeded in Geometry with the support of The Geometry Companion. It definitely made a difference in their attitude towards math. I pray that The Geometry Companion will help you succeed in whatever Geometry endeavor you are undertaking. May you and your companion enjoy your Geometry adventure together!
