A guide to a better understanding of the language of mathematics, and what it means in a real-world context, as well as for taking standardized tests. 

This book is dedicated to those individuals who, like me, were not afraid to dream relentlessly to be the best version of themselves at every moment in life. The purpose of this book is to check in with students, parents, and teachers to share the lessons learned throughout my academic career, and humbly share my perspective on content that we may assume that “everybody knows”. The focus of this book is to present my findings in a straightforward manner, with the hope that the reader will walk away feeling like they learned something useful. Lastly, I would like to thank the teachers, friends, students, family, and especially my wife, who has heard me talk about everything presented in the forthcoming pages too many times.
