Alpha Math Tutoring

Video Transcript

"What is alpha math tutoring? Alpha math tutoring is combining language with math. So for example, A equals one, B equals two, C equals three, blah,blah, blah, blah, blah. And numerologists, I believe, used that to find patterns in everything from... Or a good example of that would be Jim Carrey's movie, 23, in which he finds...he reads a book and every 23rd word has got a hidden meaning but... If you...if you just look at the every 23rd word, it tells him about how he's going to murder somebody and blah, blah, blah,blah, blah. It makes math fun, basically, for kids who are not so into math. If you tell them that they have a certain...their name is a number, you can get, you know, their magical number by getting them to figure out how many...and what the...what the worth...what the value...what the numerical value of their name is. So Ben, B-E-N, two plus five plus fourteen is 21. That's my special number, et cetera. That is tutoring alpha math."
