In the late 1980s, Network ABC congratulated the United States on a lovely drama called "The Year of Miracles." The young Fred Savage drove the mature turmoil of the 1960s, a period of turbulent American history. In this family sitcom, his co-star Danica McKellar is his good friend, and his girlfriend Winnie again and again. In this friendly TV show, the struggle for mathematical concepts may be too mundane.
Ms. McKellar decided to take a break, attend UCLA, earn a bachelor's degree in mathematics - and even help write original research that provides the original mathematical theorem. In this course, she has an epiphany: from
Mathematics is not necessarily the bane of young women. from
She wrote that she chose not to stay in the lofty tower of the School of Mathematics. from
Mathematics does not suck from
A book dedicated to young women to help those who struggle with math anxiety.

To give readers a better understanding of the concept of pre-algebra. After teaching mathematics in high school, the writer could not find a mistake in the demonstration of the school principal. One of the benefits of learning mathematics and even teaching mathematics is that the final math problem can only get a correct answer. When students realize that mathematics is a rigorous study, they create mathematical anxiety... This kind of research cannot be achieved through the process of bluffing.
Adolescent girls will appreciate Danica's efforts to provide dating skills and insights during adolescence. McKellar is praised for including recommendations from professional women who describe mathematical research that can help even feminine careers such as fashion commoditization.
However, it is difficult to take some illustrations seriously. For example, to teach the difference between a positive integer and a negative integer, McKellar calls it "the son of a coin." A good tasting mint is a positive integer, and a bad tasting trivia is a negative integer. If you have a negative taste in your mouth, such as -6, you can combine it with a positive integer to get 0. She calls it "lint-eger" because it is very dull.
Meet a young woman who struggles with mathematics? This book can help, but stay away from her father; he will laugh at himself for the rest.
