Don’t Miss SCOTT FLANSBURG – The Human Calculator!

Here is a YouTube of The Human Calculator in action with school students. You can see Scott in action at this year’s MidWest Homeschool Convention!! His mission is to help people improve their basic math skills regardless of their ages, and convince them that math can be fun. He believes that everyone has the ability to be good at math and enjoy it. The Human Calculator is dedicated to helping students to overcome their math-related fears showing how math is around us in everything we see and do… and can be cool too!

Best selling author Scott Flansburg is “The Human Calculator” – a nickname given to him by television star Regis Philbin. Scott earned this nickname because of his remarkable math skills that allow him to add, subtract, multiply, and divide (even do square and cube roots) all in his head with amazing speed and calculator accuracy.

Scott added the same number to itself more times in 15 seconds than a person could do with a calculator, which is why he is the Guinness World Record holder for “Fastest Human Calculator”. According to Scott, he would be even faster, but he can’t speak the answers as fast as he can calculate them in his head!

Now an elite “edutainer,” Scott speaks to educators, parents, corporate leaders, and thousands of kids each year, teaching them about math and even showing off his own skills a bit.

Scott is an the accomplished author of ‘Math Magic’ and ‘Math Magic for Kids’ publisher by Harper Collins and will soon release his latest book – I count from Zero.
