What People Are Saying About Fast Track MATH
I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching Adult Ed classes for several years, and it has been very satisfying to see math scores improve & diplomas earned. My purpose in creating this website is to help as many math students as possible. If the site is helpful for you, please share it with others!
Best wishes,
Jay
PS I love success stories. Feel free to send me yours!
Thank you so much! I recommend your site to all my students who need to up their game in math and they LOVE it. They find your videos and style of teaching very call ming and so helpful. I use your practice tests to prepare my students to take the TASC readiness test before they register for the HSE. Thanks for all you do to help adult learners!

Jay’s site has been crucial in providing my students with skills necessary to pass the TASC math. I love the short video explanations that are provided along with the printable worksheets. When a student is needing remediation, I have them go to FAST TRACK MATH. During COVID I could rely on the videos/worksheets to help teach a particular skill virtually. I have not purchased Jay’s book, but I intend to.

I am tutoring a homeschool student. Jay’s HSE Course is the first course the student will listen to. Clarity and simplicity of instruction is critical and Jay does that.

I’m loving this new math book! Love the scope and sequence, the answer key location, great graphics, and powerful mnemonics! Then, there’s the Checklist – awesome addition! Your explanations are clear and easy to follow, as always. Thanks for another great product with everything all in one place.

I teach adult education at lvy Tech in Sellersburg, IN. I have been using Jay's website with my students for a few years now. I have had nothing but good feedback from my students. Most students comment how you (Jay) teach math in a way that they can easily comprehend. Others have said how it is helpful! that they can re-watch videos when they want to review. All students who have used the site as assigned have improved. This website is especially valuable during this time of e-learning. Thank you, Jay, for all of your ha rd work and expertise in creating this website!

My students love the videos and practice sheets on Jay’s website because the information is focused on skills! When they come to my online class with the skills in hand, we are able to explore how we can apply and use these skills in various situations. Less time on rote practice and more time on applying skills!! Thank you, Jay!

The book was waiting for me when I got home yesterday. Spending today in my office looking it over page by page as we are not currently having classes due to COVID. Loving your book so far! Teaching in an adult detention facility can be a challenge from the standpoint that I may have a student who dropped out in the 10th grade and sitting next to him is a student whose family moved so often that he only made it to the 6th grade. So simplified explanations are a plus! A given lesson then turns out to be a good review for the 10th grade student, while the 6th grade student is still learning the process. That makes it hard to use one text book which is the situation we are in. My lower-level learners look at it and often throw up their hands thinking that there is no way they will ever get it. Or much worse they say to me, “I’m too dumb.” And the biggest challenge to that scenario, is that the lower-level student often quits coming before giving it a chance. Thus, I love the way you approach it. Thanks so much!

My students tell me that they couldn’t understand math until Jay explained it to them. Jay guides them through the pitfalls and uses easy-to-follow hints and tricks to make everything understandable and doable.

My ESL students adore the way Jay presents math concepts. His videos are great because the instructor can stop them at any time to further clarify or practice. And those spot-on worksheets save so much teacher preparation time!!

Hello! I have several students that use your website. Here are 2 responses:
1) The thing about Jay is that he does not take a long time to explain the process. He is easier to understand than most teachers. Instead of losing me in the long process or explanation, he gets to the point and it is easier to then do the problems.
2) These videos are like candy. I have been here for 3 years off and on. I have been scared of math. After doing this website with the videos, I feel free of my negative feelings toward doing math. I am finding that I want more and more because I can grasp the concepts quicker. Thank you for allowing us to use your site!!!!!
Another of my students just shared that your videos saved her marriage. WOW!!!!!! What a testimony. She said since the virus, her husband was helping her through her studies. It was not a good situation, since he is great at math and she struggles with this subject. She was sending you much praise for all of your help.

Given the math section of the TASC Test is probably the most difficult for my students to pass, Jay’s site has been a very helpful tool for my students. The videos with follow-up worksheets have been a valuable resource for understanding of math concepts. Keep up the excellent work Jay!
