US Grade 7 - 10
Students attend 4 hours of live on-line classes with me each week. When compared to other Outschool group classes, my Algebra Courses provide more hours of live class per week than any other algebra group class available on Outschool. No other teacher provides 4 live on-line classes per week in algebra. I teach by showing students an example of each type of problem. During the class time, students are expected to work on problems with my feedback and support. My teaching style is problems-based and there is ample opportunity for students to attempt problems during class. Based on my 19 years of teaching experience, I find that this is the only effective way for students to learn and retain the material in algebra. My Algebra 1 Crash Course is a complete course in Algebra 1. It is intended for students who have previously studied Pre-Algebra. This course is intended for students who are going into their freshman year (grade 9) but younger or older students can also take my Algebra 1 Crash Course. Every week, I provide problem sets for students to complete on their own as homework. This is a fast-paced course, completed in just four weeks. I expect students to work hard and do their best! After completing my Algebra 1 Crash Course, it is recommended that you enroll in my Geometry Course.
Learning Goals
Complete course in Algebra 1. Prior completion of pre-algebra recommended. For students in freshman year. Also suitable for younger or older students who have completed pre-algebra. Students will thrive in Algebra 1.
