The New York
Times—Bringing “Magic” to Math “They call him a
life-saver, a miracle worker, a genius. At the very least a weaver
of classroom magic.” Newsday—Roosevelt Program Adds up to Success
“...A second-grade teacher...started using Barrett’s
methods...Her students can do complicated examples of long
division... and, she says, “they know their times tables backwards
and forwards.” The Daily News—Ghetto Kids Whiz through the Cosines
“First graders...barely tall enough to reach the blackboard,
are doing addition and subtraction of six digit numbers. By second
grade, they’re polishing off long division. If fifth and sixth
grade, they’re sailing through the algebra regents exam for
ninth-grade student.”
Library
Journal—Book Review “...Recommended for academic libraries with
teacher preparation curricula and for public libraries serving
parents seeking active involvement in their children’s education.”

Post Professor B.
Math Program a big help to teachers and kids “Their parents are
thrilled.”
References Since learning of the Professor B Math
Methodology, my passion for learning and teaching math has been
stirred. This experience has been like a “rebirth” for me. I have a
deep concern about the number of students who have a fear of math
and who are failing math. I strongly recommend the Professor B Math
Program to all teachers, parents, and students. This in the ONLY way
to rescue our students. It never fails that when I use the
strategies with my students, they say “Oh! I get it now!” That’s
priceless and that’s what I look forward to everywhere I go. It
works! All math teachers need to experience the Professor B Power
Learning Institute...it will change the way you teach math and you
will ultimately experience success like never before with your
students. Thank God for Professor B!!!”

“When Victory World
Christian School opened two years ago, we decided to teach math
logically and sequentially using Professor B’s methods. His
interactive CD that is used in the classroom and at home with
children and their parents MAKES SENSE. It is fun and educational.
Children master concepts and move progressively through the first CD
all the way through the third, over their elementary school
experience. Our children have excelled on the Stanford Achievement
Tests in the math procedures and the math problem solving sections.
Actually, there are things that our children are learning, using his
methodologies, that aren’t measured on the national tests—but they
are critical foundation blocks. So we are excited about what the
future holds for our students as they progress through his system.
Professor B is passionate about unlocking children’s capacity to
learn and love math. His methods are fun for students, teachers, and
parents alike.”

“I have been privileged to work with Professor
B Enterprises in five schools. At this time, C.A.R.E. had received a
grant from the Rural Trust Foundation to see if the school climate
could be changed and if mathematics scores, on the Stanford
Achievement Test at North Sumter Junior High School in the Sumter
County Alabama School District, could be improved. North Sumter
scored 28 out of a possible 99 in mathematics on the Stanford
Achievement Test. During mid-year, Professor B was introduced into
the school. The school was on alert status, if they remained on
alert, they would be taken over by the state. The school was
desperate to have assistance. During the 1999-2000 year, Professor
B’s Mathematics Program was implemented in North Sumter Junior High
School on a regular basis. This is not just a theoretical discourse
about the possibilities that all children can learn at a high level,
rather it is the practical, I have seen it for myself, type of
discourse. In 2000-2001, the 3rd graders at North Sumter scored 74
in mathematics. This was a phenomenal increase in just one and a
half years.
