Math Success!
“Mike” is now a junior in high school. He took algebra his freshman year and totally flunked it. He couldn’t focus on his work, was obsessed about a variety of non-scholarly subjects, couldn’t relate to peers, and generally was a total emotional wreck. He has Asperger’s, a mild form of autism. At that time we had begun to treat him with supplements from Amy Yasko’s protocol. But they weren’t working. Then in December or so we were able to figure out which Yasko supplements help him, and had him only on those. He has been doing better and better ever since. He’s taking algebra again this year.
At his teacher conference yesterday his algebra teacher told me she thinks he has gift for math. He asks penetrating questions. He does all his work. He is organized. He interacts appropriately with his peers in the class. He is getting an A.
This is something I thought I would NEVER see. Perhaps he is living up to his heritage from his grandfather the CalTech Ph.D. and rocket scientist.
