Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 4
In this class, students will practice their deciphering skills to solve math story problems.

In this class, we will meet and solve a variety of story problems that require the use of addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division to find the answer. Students will learn about keywords that signal which of the operations will be required, as well as receive some review on how to solve addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems.

Students should be familiar with adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing before taking this class. If your student struggles with these skills, please consider enrolling in a different class that focuses on whichever skills your student needs the most help with.

Learning Goals

Students will improve their analysis skills of math story problems.

Other Details

Supply List
A one-page handout listing the steps for solving math problems will be posted in the classroom as a guide for students.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a nuclear engineering graduate from South Carolina State University with a Bachelor's in Science. I began graduate school for a PhD in Nuclear Engineering, but due to health issues I decided to leave school and pursue my passions elsewhere--like here!

Thus, it may go without saying that a lot of classes I offer are math and science (particularly nuclear science) related.

If you have anything specific you would like to see a class on, please feel free to message me, and I will let you know if I feel comfortable teaching that topic (if I do, I will make it the next class I start offering!). Also, feel free to request class sections at other times than when I offer them; I will be sure to keep my availability updated and will be happy to see you at any of these times! If you have any questions, please feel free to message me.

Much of my teaching background is in tutoring. I have listings set up for private lessons, so feel free to message me if you are interested! You will notice that my classes are a lot shorter than others, both in the length of each meeting and the number of weeks my classes run. This is because I break up concepts into their integral parts so that students can come for exactly what they need help with and skip over the parts that they are superstars at. :) Therefore, be sure to read the class descriptions carefully and select the class(es) that will best help your student!

I hope to see you and your students in class soon!
