I have been in education since 1983 and am presently in a management position at an Independent Preparatory School in the United Kingdom. I have taught and been in leadership positions in both the private and state sector in South Africa and the United Kingdom. I have produced and adapted hard copy lessons and PowerPoint lessons for a number of years and will be updating the "Maths Worksheets Galore" shop on a regular basis.

Both of these books contain over 100 pages of explanations with follow up exercises to consolidate what has been dealt with in the classroom during a specific lesson. The explanations are illustrated so that they might be easily understood thus affording the teacher the opportunity to supply sections of the class with extra/enrichment work and then spend more time with students who are struggling.
The boys and girls can also mark their own work as answers are supplied after each section.
These workbooks can also be utilised for revision purposes prior to a test or examination.
The Algebra Book 1 contains two assessment test at the end of the book.
Bonus: Answers are included for all exercises.
