Math Essentials No-Nonsense Algebra Practice Workbook

I’m going back to college to finish my degree and I’m prepping for my Calculus classes. I bought this book as a refresher and the online videos are wonderful. Mr.Fisher breaks down all the equations in a very simple way and easy to follow along. The practice problems are great. Didn’t come across any incorrect answers in the solutions section.

I picked this one up to accompany the main lesson book, since sometimes, my homeschooled 8th grader just needs a few more exercises to understand a concept. These problems follow the themes in the main book and do offer extra problems when needed. The answers are clear and easy to locate as well. This series is everything I hoped it be.

This workbook is strictly extra practice for the lessons taught in the "No-Nonsense Algebra, 2nd edition: Part of the Mastering Essential Math Skills series". In that guide book the homeschool parent will have the tools necessary to help their child work through each exercise set. Also the guide book has a key code to use online and view the videos with great explanations if needed. My 8th and 11th grade children are working through these two books (guide book and this workbook) together daily. The 8th grader seeing it for the first time and the 11th grader using it as SAT review. Best way to study is to teach someone else :) very happy with this workbook.

This is extra practice to go with the lesson book. It works well with the lesson book for reinforcement. However in this book and the regular instruction version of the book there are sometimes errors in the answer key. At times when something has seemed hard to solve because it doesn't match the answer key, we've realized the answer key is sometimes wrong, so use another source to verify correct answers if you ever come across a problem that just feels confusing and you can't get the answer that matches the book.

I've been out of high-school for 8 years. Out of college for 6 years. It's been 8 years since I took a math class. I was naturally very good at math, but after 8 years I had forgotten all of the basics. It doesn't matter how good I USED to be at math if I can't remember the basic rules. I'm returning to college next month and will be taking math and chemistry as refresher courses for Pre-calc and General Chemistry. I've been doing a couple lessons every night, in the book, and I also bought the workbook to do alongside the main book. BEST DECISION I HAVE MADE to prepare myself for returning to college after years of being out of the classroom.
