US Grade 1 - 2
Intermediate Level
In this class, students will learn to solve subtraction problems involving negative numbers. Students will receive a handout before the class begins that summarizes all of the tips and tricks that the class will teach. In the first meeting of the class, students will learn how to solve problems in the form of positive-minus-negative (i.e. 2-(-1)), negative-minus-positive (i.e. (-2)-1), and negative-minus-negative (i.e. (-2)-(-2)). We will work through examples of each situation with single digit numbers. Students will be assigned a homework sheet after this meeting. In the second meeting of the class, we will work through more examples of subtraction problems involving negative numbers. This time, however, not only will we work with single-digit numbers, but we will also branch out into problems with double- and triple-digit numbers. In the third meeting of the class, students will take the lead and solve problems on their own. We will then work through to the correct answer together. The homework assigned after the first meeting of class will be due before this meeting starts. Students should be confident with adding and subtracting positive numbers, and students should be familiar with adding negative numbers. If they are not, please consider enrolling in "Subtract It! Using Triple Digit Numbers" and/or "Crossing to the Other Side... of Zero! Addition Using Negative Numbers" first. Please contact me if you have any concerns.

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!Reviews
