Has anyone had experience with the Discover Math program? I know of a couple places that offer it—one in California and one in Canada. There may be others. Discover Math is a remedial program to help kids understand the concepts of math and get caught up. It looks great, but I haven’t heard much about it. Any comments would be appreciated.

Re: Discover Math
Hey, Canada’s a nice place to visit! Us locals are real friendly :wink:
Where is Steve Truch and his clinic?
Seriously, it’s just as easy to get here as it is to get to New York City or Seattle for other workshops. If you want to do it, have fun.
Re: Discover Math
Here is Truch’s site:

The clinics are in Calgary or Vancouver. It’s just so expensive after you pay for the workshop and add plane fare, hotels, etc., even though it would be a great place to visit in the summer!
I’ll have to stick with Lindamood-Bell, I suppose, as there is a clinic with trainings less than an hour from where I live.

If you are talking about Discover Math from Steve Truch’s clinic, then I’d bet it is very good. He is very familiar with the Lindamood-Bell programs and I have talked with him by email regarding his programs and trainings. Unfortunately he is located in Canada, so getting the training is not a simple matter. But there are few quality remedial math programs available, so I’d certainly be interested if I wanted to seriously tutor math.
