Math Anxiety Reduction reduces anxiety in four phases:

1. It shows the causes of anxiety in general providing the learner with aids in determining the particular cause of his/her anxiety.

2. It describes learning theory and quality instruction as prerequisites for presenting and practicing good study skills.

3. It teaches relaxation techniques to overcome the physical-emotional reactions which interfere with teaching-learning situations.

4. It provides ample opportunities for successsful math experiences with fractions, percent, ratio and proportion, and word-problems.

"The major cause of anxiety over mathematics is the promotion of learning by memorization. People often wonder why the anxiety is attached to mathematics instead of English, Social Science, etc. and the answer is a combination of two facts: First - mathematics instruction frequently encourages (forces) memorization; and Second - memorization without understanding is a guaranteed route to failure in mathematics, but may seem effective with other subjects. Students can be more aware of their learning problems and students can begin taking control of those situations where anxiety is created. This software aims its information at the student."
