The Geometry Tutor - 9 Hour Course - 2 DVD Set - Learn By Examples!

the exposition is very clear and the teacher make a courageous and mostly successful effort but it looks ridiculous when he tries to use his arms to indicate different planes, lines etc. etc. in three dimensional space. computer graphics would have led to an immense improvement, the product would have warranted a rating of 5 stars

Absolutely the BEST high-school geometry help I have ever seen. We purchased four other formats at the same time, and this is the only one we ended up using (or needing) for the full course. Simple, concise presentation without bells and whistles. Fully comprehensive and easy to navigate to specific points; friendly and casual, like having a teacher on remote! If you are going to spend money on geometry help, you absolutely MUST HAVE the Geometry Tutor.

This is just one of several dvd's I own by the same author, and this dvd on geometry, like his others, is excellent. As with all of his titles, Jason does an outstanding job of keeping things simple, clear and yet thorough. He's extremely effective at presenting the why's and how's of math formulas and concepts in more than one way. For example, in this dvd, he presents the concept of a triangle as being "half" a rectangle -- when you see his representation of this using the whiteboard, suddenly this both clarifies the concept of a triangle also shows connections to other concepts you might not have considered.

In addition to explaining math concepts, Jason goes through several examples, allowing you to follow along with pen and paper at the same time.

It's a rare gift to be able to explain things clearly and simply without dumbing down the subject (far from it -- he's also good at explaining challenging examples, too). Jason Gibson does an outstanding job in removing the mystery -- and by extension, anxiety, and focusing on what you really need to know!

The dvd is good, but I find it rather annoying that Jason has got a nasty cold. It screws up hisvoice and takes away his fire...

I wish I would have known about this DVD before, because if I did, I probably would not be taking it for the second time this summer! Anyway, the instructor really breaks down all of the important concepts, and it made it so much easier to understand what the heck I am supposed to do. I would recommend this video to anyone who is having difficulty with Geometry!
