Algebra 2: Prep for Success One-On-One Instruction

To start off these sessions, I will evaluate which Algebra skills need practice and instruction so that you confidently enter Algebra 2.   After over 30 years of teaching, I have witnessed that most concepts are learned over time, with review. Few students are going to retain algebraic skills after completing one single unit.  This course gives that extra boast that most students need to help concepts and skills go into their long term memory and become a part of their problem-solving skill set.

As an instructor, my strength is in strong explanations.  After teaching many students I have learned how to make the instruction understandable to diverse students. I am an enthusiastic teacher and I strive to encourage both reserved and outgoing students.  I currently teach in-person classes of Algebra 1 & 2 and Geo-Trig as well local and Outschool tutoring.  I also offer SAT prep classes.

Topics will included (but are not limited to) the following:
Evaluating expressions
Algebraic properties
Exponents and radicals
Rational expressions (Algebraic fractions)
Solving equations and systems of equations (including decimals and fractions)
Absolute value
Factoring and the Quadratic Equation
Graphing lines and linear equations.
