A top class numeracy home-study book - By: Andy, 08 Jul 2008 
I bought this book on the back of Kathryn Wood's review, as I was taking the National Certificate in Numeracy Level 2 exam under similar circumstances to her. I used it for home-study over several weeks & today I passed the exam first time! I am thrilled!
I would highly recommend this book.
The best maths book I've seen - By: J. Turner, 04 Jan 2007 I have used this book quite a lot when teaching in my Adult Numeracy class. I like it because of its ease of use & layout. My learners also love it & have bought it for themselves.
Excellent Text - By: , 15 Jan 2006 This is an excellent resource for teachers of adult numeracy. Friendly than Llewlynn & Greer, which it has replaced as my main source text . Very useful is the ordering by curriculum reference. Recommended
The Holy Grail - By: Kathryn M Wood, 13 Nov 2005 This book is terrific. I'm a Maths phobic, 3 failures at O Level (yes I'm quite old...) & I needed the Level 2 Numeracy qualification to do teaching. Two intensive weeks of revision & working through this book & the exercises at the end of it lead to ...a pass! One of my happiest moments exam-wise & not possible without the help of this superb, key text. Thanks ladies I owe you one.
A really useful book! - By: , 13 Dec 2004 I use this book as a main text for adults preparing for level 1 & level 2 adult numeracy tests (it is less useful for Entry 3 students). It is comprehensively referenced to the Core Curriculum which helps to keep my teaching on track & makes paperwork less of a chore. I have found the level & style of questions to be exactly right for the adults I teach & the plentiful examples throughout help students take control of their own learning. One of the most useful resources I have found.
