What motivated you to get your GED? I want to go to college and had promised my aunt before she died I would finish school and make something of myself, and I really want to help people out with the field I want to go into.

How have your friends and family helped you? I have one friend who believes in me, and my family really doesn’t tell me that they are happy for me, so that pushes me even more.

What problems have you faced? The only problems I face are math problems, that’s what I really need help with.

What do you hope to gain from getting your GED? I want to become a CSI. I want to be able to help families come to closure and let their loved ones rest in peace because I know what it feels like to lose someone to a murder and it never be solved.

That’s just about all. I hope that you can help me achieve my dreams and goals.

Monaris,

Math is a problem for a lot of people. The GED Academy takes math one step at a time, from the very basics, and helps you make sense of it. If you concentrate on basic number skills and how to think through word problems, you’ll have the foundation you need for GED math.

Now’s the time to get through it. I know it can be tough, but learning one thing at a time… really learning it… and going on to the next, you can do it. And you’ll be ready before you know it. If you master the math basics, you’ll be on the road to your dreams!
