Why a Geometric Approach?


                    Most students in “middle school” are visual
                    learners.

                    Most students in “middle school” are visual
                    learners.

                    90% of the math topics can be explored
                    geometrically (visually).

                    90% of the math topics can be explored
                    geometrically (visually).

                    Therefore, it makes sense to teach them
                    geometrically.

                    Therefore, it makes sense to teach them
                    geometrically.
