Tools to Transform Yourself

Brain Mind Math 8 Program Features:

  • Unique Presentation

    Math is presented in this program so that your child will know exactly what they are supposed to know and how they are supposed to do it . . their clear "job description" (something you get when you go to work). This is so that when they go into the classroom they will be able to understand what the teacher requires and when they go to write a test they will be prepared and confident that they will do well.

  • Western Canada Curriculum

    The courses cover the all the concepts and skills required in the curriculum for the Western and Northern Canadian Protocol, regardless which textbook your kid uses: MathLinks, Math Makes Sense, and Math Focus. The content of the curriculum has been redesigned into a simple format/structure incorporating strategic Brian Mind Learning Principles so that your child will be able to read and understand their textbook and retain the concepts for future use.

  • Brain Mind Learning Principles Built-In

    Cognitive scientists have outlined Learning Principles that enable a student to prepare for learning, process information easier and faster, and retain the information. These principles have not been fully incorporated into the teachings of many schools yet. However, they will be incorporated throughout this program. Your child will learn how to learn Math easier and faster.

Bachelors of Education, Masters of Distance Education. I enjoy teaching middle school students how to learn because I find their brains are still very elastic and open. I like teaching math because it's an opportunity to turn a bad situation into such a positive one. I have been teaching for over 30 years. Half of that time has been spent finding a way to make math easy for students in grades 6 – 9. This Video Math Program is a way for students to get in a learning groove that will make them feel as smart as they really are.

Why should I choose the Brian Mind Math 8 Program?

  • Comfort, Convenience, and Privacy

    Unless you get a private tutor most tutoring agencies such as Kumon, Sylvan, Oxford Learning, and Mathnasium are often done at a center. Math in a Weekend allows your child to get expert instruction from the comfort of your home and provide the opportunity for you as a parent to also watch the videos and be instrumental in helping your child become a successful math learner.

  • Build Confidence Right Away

    The basic premise of most tutoring agencies is that an assessment is required to determine what level your child is working at. This can be quite demoralizing to your child if your child does poorly in that assessment and is told that they are several grades behind. The school and tutoring agencies believe that the problem lies with your child and their skill level. Our basic premise is that your child is smart (and you know that because they can do so many things so well) and that the problem lies with the instruction given at the middle school level. Much of the content and skills at the grade 7 and 8 level are repeated so that you do not have to worry about what has happened in the previous grade. The program covers these foundational skills so that your child is working with content that is at their grade level. This is a great benefit because your child's self-esteem is crucial in making progress and becoming a successful math learner.

  • Costs Less!

    The cost of getting tutoring support can easily turn into thousands of dollars. For $247 you can not get this kind of information that is presented in this program. The program is a culmination of years of research and practice with proven results.

Brian Mind Math 8 Videos versus Free Videos

There are many free videos with great content and teachings on the internet, but none provide the complete set of tools your child needs to become a successful math learner.

  • Completely correlates with the school curriculum - it can be difficult to find all the exact concepts that your child will be studying in their textbook.

  • Easy to follow structure - All the concepts and skills are organized in a manner as though it was a "Math Story". The program has a narrative flow that connects previous ideas and skills to present ones helping students build a stronger understanding of the material they are working on.

  • Drill and practice is often too emphasized. Students need to know how a math course works, and how to learn, or their problems will continue to compound as they move into high school.
