Class Experience

Beginner Level

In this course, I will teach students how to add and subtract fractions, starting from the basics and progressing step-by-step to more complex problems. 

The class is structured to offer clear, targeted instruction on each topic, with plenty of examples to reinforce the concepts. Lessons will be taught via Zoom, where I will demonstrate each concept and walk students through examples in real-time. My teaching style is patient and laid-back, allowing ample time for questions, clarification, and interaction.

Students will interact with me through live discussions, asking questions directly, and participating in guided practice. Additionally, I provide video clips that explain concepts from different perspectives, offering an alternative way to understand the material. This ensures a well-rounded approach to learning, making the content more accessible and engaging for everyone.
