US Grade 7 - 9
Beginner Level
In this 12-week Algebra 1 practice course, students will learn essential algebraic concepts, including solving equations, graphing functions, working with polynomials, understanding inequalities, and mastering factoring techniques. Each week focuses on a new topic, gradually building skills and providing a solid foundation in Algebra 1. The course is structured to maximize engagement with a blend of lectures, interactive games, and hands-on practice problems.
Classes will include lesson slides, and step-by-step explanations, with ample opportunities for student participation. My teaching style is interactive and supportive, with plenty of real-world examples to help make abstract concepts feel relevant. Learners will get to interact with me directly through Q&A discussions, live problem-solving sessions, and guided practice.
Learning Goals
Develop Algebraic Problem-Solving Skills
Students will gain the ability to solve a variety of algebraic equations and inequalities, including one-step, two-step, and multi-step problems, equipping them with strong foundational skills for higher-level math
Understand and Apply Function Concepts
Students will understand the concept of functions, learn to interpret and evaluate them, and accurately graph and analyze linear functions, enabling them to approach real-world scenarios with mathematical thinking.

Hi I am Ms. Amii. I'm going to into my fourth year as a educator. I currently work with elevate K12 working as a math teacher for grades 1 through 8. My approach to teaching is to apply the material to real-world situations so that students feel that the information is truly important to know. I believe in this approach because if students think that the material they are learning will help them later in life they are more likely to remember it. I plan on teaching math classes, high school prepared classes, as well as a series of classes focused on preparing for financial aid for college while in middle grades. While I plan to teach mainly academic focus classes I do plan to teach some classes that lean towards my own personal interests. I plan to do a summer NaNoWriMo fanfiction event, I love to write fanfiction and Harry Potter is one of my main topics. Now while Harry Potter is my favorite we will also be focusing on multiple other fanfictions that we would like to write stories about most likely putting it to a vote to the students for each fan fiction topic.
