Stephen Hake, Author of Saxon Math Intermediate 3-5 and Courses 1-3
When I read the published field-test results of John Saxon's Algebra 1 manuscript and learned that John Saxon taught students with the same methods I did, I placed an order and began using John's book with my eighth grade students with great success. Recognizing the country's need for an effective math program from grade school through high school, we joined our efforts and soon Saxon Math was helping millions of students across America succeed in math. Students can learn math and are advanced through the subject matter in a way that gently guides them step by step and provides the time and practice necessary to learn and remember the foundational concepts of mathematics.
Saxon Math is written the way I taught–one bit of instruction each day with plenty of practice on previous instruction. The excellent performance of my students on problem-solving contests and on standardized tests convinced me that this method of instruction works. It produces excellent problem-solving skills and long-term learning of key math concepts.

I began to adapt Saxon's intermediate grades series in 1991 for use with my own Special Ed students. When other resource specialists began to request copies of my work, I realized it might be of value to Saxon users. The Saxon approach is reliable. I've seen repeated proof that this program works for all students. Even as I reach my 40th year as a full-time resource specialist, seeing the happiness of my students' faces as they achieve beyond their dreams is still the greatest joy of my life.
