"I give my students handouts that cover the information I talk about in class. I do this the day before class and assign it as a reading for that night. In this way my students have a mental set for the lesson. They don't like it, but I use occasional snap quizzes to help be sure they do the reading."

"Math is tough for me. Always has been. Now I have to learn formulas. I know I have to remember them. I put them on cards I carry with me and keep going over them. But I also try to understand what each part means. This helps me remember them and use them the right way."
