Teaching Tape Technology--Saxon Math [Videotapes/DVDs]

Teaching Tape Technology presents Saxon’supper level math texts on a series of two-hour videotapes or DVDs (for some courses) created especially for small Christian schools and homeschools but useful in a broad range of settings.

Teacher Page Singleton presents each lesson following the book’s format, using sample and practice problems directly from the text. She works each problem step-by-step. At the end of each lesson she directs students to complete all of the problems in the text. She presents the lessons very clearly but with no digressions or enhancements.

Having a video instructor will make the Saxon texts much more usable for students who prefer “being taught” to working independently through the lessons. Tapes or DVDs are resalable, so you can easily recoup part of your investment. Or you might consider sharing the cost and the tapes with another family or two, watching the tapes together or adjusting your schedules so that one student completes the first tape before the next student is ready to begin.
