Geometry Designed for Understanding

Jacobs€™ Geometry utilizes a clear, conversational, engaging approach to teach your student the concepts, principles, and application of Geometry through practical, real-life application! Harold Jacobs guides your student through Geometry, enabling them to discover the concepts & their applications for themselves in order to develop an understanding of the principles that goes beyond simple memorization to pass a test.

Jacobs€™ unique instructional approach to math means your student:

  • Develops a true understanding of geometric principles
  • Interacts with concepts using real-world examples, ensuring they€™ll know exactly how to apply the material they are learning to real-life and other academic subjects
  • Is prepared to take their understanding of Geometry concepts outside the math textbook and successfully apply them to higher math courses, sciences, & everyday life
  • Is equipped with an understanding of the foundational mathematical concepts of Geometry€”and once a student truly understands the concepts in Geometry, they are equipped & prepared for all higher math & sciences!

Engaging, Real-World Instruction

Understanding both the why and how of Geometry is foundational to your student€™s success in high school and college. Jacobs€™ Geometry provides students with a clear and thorough understanding of why concepts work, as well as how they are applied to solve real-world problems.

A Top Choice for High School Success & College Prep

Jacobs€™ Geometry has proven its ability to guide students towards success and is still the choice of top teachers and schools. The unique instructional method within Jacobs€™ Geometry ensures your student understands both the why and how of Geometry and establishes a strong foundation for higher math & science courses. If your student is planning for college or a STEM career, Jacobs€™ Geometry ensures they are equipped with the tools they need to succeed!
