Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I am giving this book two stars because many people suspect that one-star reviews are simply vendettas written by people that might not like an author personally or have ideological differences with him/her--neither of which is implicated in my evaluation of this book. First, consider that the typical published paperback has 400 words per page; this book has approximately 175 words per page, which makes that fewer than a double-spaced typewritten one. Morever, the type selected is quite large 16 or 18 pts., simply to add more pages to the book. Do the math and you will see that this book--if it followed conventional guidelines--would be about 30 pages long. Remember creating very wide margins in school when the teacher gave you an assignment of ____ pages? To top it off, about 10 or 15 pages are devoted to inane tips like how to create a memorable e-mail or website title. Thus, it is smarter to have an e-mail address like greattooter.com than Imamoron.com.
Next, the book is abysmally written. Consider this handy tip: "If you are a cell phone user, you might consider entering everyone's phone numbers into your phone." Unfortunately, my cell phone doesn't have a directory that can input 5,000,000,000 different numbers. Maybe yours does.
Last, and least, there is nothing in this book you couldn't find out by just doing a internet search of tutoring. I could go on, but I've wasted enough time writing this review, and reading this....book?
As for positive reviews of this book, although it's impossible to find out, I wouldn't be surprised if they were written by friends of the "author." At least I hope so!
