"The kids loved it!!   Excellent illustration of how math can be fun.  Your show is well-planned, high-interest, and fast-moving.  We appreciated the Professor's high-energy level,  positive praise, audience participation, wonderful organization, age-appropriate tricks, and true love of math.  Your number tricks have motivated our kids into bringing in their own math tricks.  What a wonderful experience for our 4th and 5th grade students!  Thank you for coming back again.  It was another great show."

"Professor Numbers put on two great presentations for our students. Ray Blum (Professor Numbers) did a kindergarten through second grade Math is Magic assembly as well as a program for grades 3-5. He did many math tricks for the children at their level and succeeded in involving the students. We had fun and were definitely impressed with his magic! Afterwards, teachers and students were still trying to figure out his math magic tricks!"
