This is real. There are ads out there on the internet that say “Get your IQ up and get smarter!”. They just want your money, their running a scam. Curiosity Killed the Cat, and that’s how they get people to buy into their product.
I’m not making money off this, and I don’t want to scam people from their money, that’s just wrong. What I want to do is help people and their kids perform better academically. If you think this is going to be a bunch of baloney, go ahead and stop reading here, this is not for you.
For the people still reading, I encourage you to at least try this, it’s free, and just requires a few sheets of printed paper.
How this works:
If you’re a parent, just tell your child you’re going to help them with their basic math skills like their multiplication tables, addition, subtraction, and maybe even division. The first time you get a chance after your child gets home, print out a math worksheet from http://math.about.com/od/multiplication/ig/Times-Tables-Worksheets/ and give it to your child face down. Get a timer, and I will make a chart for approximate times that your child should be allowed to have for a certain number of questions. This chart is good for all types of worksheets. You do not have to follow this chart; it is more to give you an idea of how much time to give your child.
| Chart for 60 Questions | Beginner | Intermediate | Advanced |
| 1-2 | 3:00 | 2:30 | 2:15 |
| 3-4 | 2:45 | 2:15 | 2:05 |
| 5-6 | 2:15 | 2:05 | 1:50 |
| 7-8 | 2:05 | 1:50 | 1:30 |
| 9+ | 1:50 | 1:30 | 1:00 |
If you want to just do 30 questions- cut each time in half, but round down to the next multiple of five (ex. 2:15 becomes 1:05).
This is very simple, takes just a few minutes, and should bring results back fairly fast. Thanks for reading, and I will be writing another post on helping Essay Writing Skills in a few days.
OK…..good to know
