Each of us has encountered someone who has expressed some hesitancy or dread surrounding math or math classes. The Ghost of Mathematics provides teachers, students, and parents alike with tips and strategies for overcoming these anxieties and inhibitions surrounding particular areas and topics in mathematics that are known to trigger math anxieties. We can begin to eliminate math anxiety by building proficiency in mathematics at the elementary school and address math anxiety by building proficiency in mathematics at the early childhood and elementary school levels.

Author and mathematician, Joseph A. Porzio details how to overcome these self-imposed obstacles surrounding learning. School leaders, math coaches, classroom teachers, and even parents must support young students in developing and mastering conceptual understanding; procedural fluency; and, problem solving strategies.

Full Refund on Vacuum
I purchased the 3 year plan for my robotic vacuum. It stopped working at about the 1 year point. Went to their site, printed the prepaid label, dropped it off at UPS store near me. The sent an email letting me know they received the vacuum, then another email that they were trying to repair it, then another email about two weeks after I mailed it letting me know that a gift card for the full amount would be issued via email to mail as they could not repair it. Took the gift card credit on amazon and purchased a different vacuum. I bought the insurance again, it is worth it!

No problem at all
I purchased a warranty on my vaccum cleaner and it was not picking up when I ran it like it always had. The head part was squeaking and hard to run. I filed a claim they sent me a label we boxed it up and sent it in. They sent emails letting me know when they got it and it was being worked on, Then we it was done they emailed me also, It runs like a new one I am very pleased and so glad I purchased the warranty. Well worth the price for the value!

IRobot Roomba 3 year warranty
My roomba stopped working as it should. It took two claims to get things taken care of but at the end, I was given a gift card for the original purchase price, which I used to buy a brand new roomba. 😁 so im satisfied and purchased another warranty for the new one.

Great insurance!
It worked wonders for me! I sent back my vacuum after a year of using it because a broken spinning wheel and they repaired it. Then, three weeks before the insurance cover expired, a lightning storm occurred in my area and my vacuum didn’t work anymore, they said they couldn’t fix it and they sent me a full refund. Of course I’ll recommend Asurion insurance!

Do not purchase. BBB will help
Don’t waste you money on this if you’re purchasing a vacuum costing you 6-700.00 or more. We have completed the claims process twice so far, called more time than I like to admit. Bought extremely large boxes and packaging and tape. Drove to ups, waited for ups only to not have our unit repaired. This last claim which was 24 hrs after we received the “fixed” item back was in the companies possession for just two hours when we were sent a msg stating they could not repeat the issues and it was on it’s was back AGAIN. So without a working vacuum for weeks it is now headed back with the same issues. The customer service line assure us they would not let it ship out and would instead keep it and a supervisor would check it and found but 10 minutes after my call I received a tracking number. Save yourself the headache and insure through someone else. Vac sounds like a power saw with rocks in it and won’t clean. Company see that as normal. Told many lies and still repair/.refund
