163: You're Not Bad At Math - What's Holding You Back & How to Fix It

If you've ever struggled with math you've probably had thoughts that you're dumb, not good at it, or will never "get it". Too many students struggle and give up when they begin to fall behind or miss out on a section that leaves a gap in the building blocks of math. And sometimes parents believe their student isn't trying hard enough or isn't as smart as the other kids. In today's episode Beth Bowen joins Coach Leslie to bust those beliefs and talk about why math is often a mental block for students. Learn how to think in a fresh new way that opens the door to not only learning but becoming fully confident with math -- Going from "this sucks" to "I've got this!" in a short amount of time. Beth has taught in public schools, homeschool co-ops, and one-on-one tutoring settings for over 20 years. Specializing in helping teens and young adults who believe they are "bad at math", she rebuilds their foundation and helps them overcome math anxiety to find real success in Middle School, High School and placement tests like the Accuplacer and ACT.   Ekster discount code link: https://www.ekster.com/LESLIE01046 For more on Beth Bowen and her tutoring: https://www.mathmentortutoring.com Facebook Group: Math Mentor Tutoring Community  LinkedIn   Like this episode?
