Top Mental Math Skills for Practical Everyday Mental Math

The fastest people at Mental Math are using techniques that aren't taught in schools to help them solve problems with much less effort. I'm an International-Level Competitor in Mental Calculation, representing the UK six times in events such as:Mental Calculation World Cup (2012, 2016, 2018)Memoriad (2016 with a Bronze Medal in the Hectoc Category and a new record in Calendar Date Calculations)Mental Calculations World Championship (2017, 2018, 2019)I run the biggest website for advanced Mental Math training, and I'm one of the official trainers who prepare the under-20s for the Junior Mental Calculations World Championship. There's a whole assortment of Mathematical tricks I use in order to perform at this level, but in this course I've chosen the most practical techniques and facts for real-life use, and quickest for you to learn.

The most important goal of Mental Math in this modern age is to calculate high-quality estimates at lightning speed. For perfect precision we all have calculators now. Therefore I've filled this course with the best techniques for accurate estimation, and some other exact techniques that are faster than a calculator.
