Algebra Mistakes To Avoid

 Students will learn to avoid the common pitfalls in working with algebra.

 I will show students how to do an exercise on the white board. They will learn  by actually doing example exercises during class. I will repeat with another exercise and will explain as many times as needed until the students are ready to do the exercises by themselves. Once started, I will check their answers for accuracy and follow up with any necessary explanations. I encourage all participants to try as many exercises as possible. I follow up the class with an upload of homework with the solutions.

The course breakdown is as follows:

Week 1: Errors involving parentheses.
Week 2: Errors involving fractions.
Week 3: Errors involving exponents and radicals.
Week 4: Errors involving cancellation.

I follow up the class with an upload of homework with the solutions. All homework will be found in the virtual classroom.

50 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.
