    This is the product that has each practice problem explained. I mistakenly bought the DIVE cd's thinking they had this feature, but they only have the lessons. I am not able to help my students figure out why they got a problem wrong, so this set of CD's has saved my life! Wish I'd discovered it 3 years ago.
    NOTE: the test PROBLEMS are not on this CD set, nor are they in the normal solutions manual. You need the test booklet specifically written for homeschoolers. The test problems are EXPLAINED on this CD set.

    My daughter is an excellent math student, but the book alone seemed to miss discussing some points ending with my daughter getting some answers wrong. She got the idea but knew their were some steps she was missing. The DVD has helped fill in those gaps. They DVD does not go over board in explaining so you have to really pay attention but she is flying through this book now so it was worth it.
    Not sure if I am overly crazy about the saxon series...but since my daughter is such a math whiz she can pick it up quite easily, but for someone who finds math difficult I would not recommend saxon.

    This CD teaching program is working well for my son. It is basic and thorough and can be adapted as needed.

    This product is very helpful for my son when he doesn't understand a specific problem. We both like that we can look at the individual problem, rather just the concept of the practice problem like in the DIVE cds.

    My daughter is a good student but was frustrated with Saxon Algebra 2 until we bought The Saxon Teacher. She is thrilled that they review every problem step-by-step, so she can go over any that she has missed. This was well worth the money!

    I am homeschooling my 11th grader over the summer in Algebra II because she had no room in her public school schedule to take it with the program she is in (Nursing VoTech). I got this because she was having issues without an "official lecture" and it worked wonders. She loves it and goes right about doing the work. It was easy to use for a non-computer person!

    We have tried several other math series with teaching DVDs and this one is our favorite. After viewing the lesson with the teacher on the computer screen, my daughter does her homework. She then checks her answers. If she misses a problem, she can watch it worked step by step on the computer. EVERY problem is worked out step by step. This is great. I nearly failed Algebra in H.S. and I am working through the Algebra I in order to finish my college degree. I am amazed at how easy it is. Where was this when I was in school!

    This product is my favorite homeschool purchase this year. I was just going to give up on Saxon math when I saw this and thought, I might as well try it. I'm VERY glad I did. It is an answer to prayers! FYI it works with the 2nd edition Saxon Algebra 2. That's what we are using.

    This resource is worth its weight in gold. The student can rewind the teacher and replay if they need more understanding and every equation in the book is explained if they need it. Better than a teacher in the room and great practice for online college classes.

    A must for the Algebra 2 book, it explains and gives rationale as each problem is worked through step by step. We find it very useful!

    This is an awesome product. I am a home school mom and I was finding it harder to teach Algebra 2. My daughter was not getting the concepts of the problems with me helping her. I bought the DIVE CD, but it was not doing it for us. So I was thinking of hiring a tutor, when I came across SAXON TEACHER. I told myself it was cheaper than a tutor, so why not give it a try. After, we started using SAXON TEACHER, she started thriving and understanding concepts that she did not understand even in Algebra 1. I calculated the cost of the SAXON TEACHER to how many leasons and it cost about .58 cent per lesson. I am so pleased with this product, I can also use it with my other two children. Money well spent, the cost of a tutor would have been much more. D. EllisonPalm Bay, FL

    This is a MUST for home schooling parents who need a little help with Algebra 2. It is voice-instructed with visuals. Extremely helpful.
