Algebra Part 3

In this twelve-week class, students will be learning concepts that will be built on through their algebra journey.  We will move quickly while still covering in-depth the mathematical concepts.   This class is part 3 of 4 all about algebra.    We will be talking about polynomials, rational expressions, radical expressions, and geometry.  I will be teaching the concept, the learner(s) will practice the concept with me, and then I check for understanding.  I make sure to allow time for questions or more practice for concepts that are more challenging.  For each session, the learner will be given a homework sheet to complete on their own time.  I will review the sheet at the beginning of each session.  

I highly recommend that a student has completed a pre-algebra or similar type class prior to taking these algebra classes.  Completing part 1 and/or part 2 is not necessary for taking this class, I highly recommend that students have a good knowledge base of the concepts taught in part 1 and part 2.

A weekly breakdown of concepts taught:
Week 1: Polynomial operations
Week 2: Polynomial, monomial, and binomial operations
Week 3: Factoring Polynomials
Week 4: Factoring more difficult Trinomials
Week 5: Simplifying Algebraic Fractions
Week 6: Multiplying and Dividing Algebraic Fractions
Week 7: Adding and Subtracting Algebraic Fractions
Week 8: Simplifying radical expressions
Week 9: Radical Expression operations
Week 10: Simplifying radical expressions
Week 11: Pythagorean theorem, distance formula, and midpoint formula
Week 12: Review and catch-up

This class will move quickly but will still thoroughly cover the concepts. I do teach other classes that cover each of these concepts in a deeper level.
