Online Summer Number Sense, General Math, and Calculator Application Classes
This summer for the first time, Anthony Gillespey the founder of MathNinja.Org and coach of the State 5A TMSCA Number Sense, Calculator, and General Math Champions will be hosting weekly online summer classes for all 3 TMSCA Math Events. The classes sizes will be kept small so make sure you sign up early. For any student or coach who signs up by May 25th the cost will be $100 dollars after May 25th the cost will be $125.00. I typically charge $50.00 an hour for tutoring so this is a great oppurtunity. All classes will be via internet. All that is required is a computer, tablet, or phone with internet access and microphone.

Unfortunately I don’t have a way to give you a discount at checkout without radically changing my website. I can give you a refund for the extra classes after you pay or I can send you a bill for 400.00. The first class is at full price every class after that is 75.00. For a total of 400.00. Just let me know what you want to do.

I’m confused, why is billing address necessary for the lessons?

I actually added that because I realized that many people were purchasing the book with the class but I didn’t have the billing information to send the book.

I will be sending you an invitation to a webcast. We will be using the app GotoMeeting.com I’ll send more information in the coming weeks. Each class will have a login invitation. We will be testing it all before we start.

Unfortunately, my family and I will be on vacation during that month so no. I do offer the classes as a video series. I taped each lesson from the previous week’s training. They are a little bit raw because I haven’t edited them but they are exactly what I taught the students in the class.

This was a great experience and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you so much for all of the information you shared. I can’t wait to get back to my team and share with them the different strategies I learned from your course.

I am a relatively new coach to a TMSCA team for Number Sense, General Math, and Calculator. Taking the Number Sense classes 1 and 2 and General Math were a great experience! Anthony did a great job of clearly explaining, breaking down how concepts were related, and gave really smart ways to apply math based reasoning to some interesting and complex math problems. These classes have helped my confidence in tackling math problems that I, quite frankly, don’t really remember anymore! Having the videos available to refer back to during the year will be a great resource for me as well. I think these courses were a great investment for me as a coach and I would highly recommend the classes to others!
