Class Experience

Learners should have a basic background knowledge in fractions, and should know their multiplication and division facts well before starting this class.

This class is an introduction to adding and subtracting fractions, including finding the least common denominator. I also offer a longer, comprehensive fractions course.  This class is recommended for student entering fifth grade and older, unless your learner works ahead of grade level in math. If you're unsure whether this is the right class for your learner, feel free to send me a message!

I will present the terms and concepts during the live classes. Learners will work along with me on some problems. There will be optional activities to complete in Khan Academy after every class that follow along with what we are learning. Learners should be committed to doing the outside of class activities for further practice in order to master the concepts being taught.

Topics by day:
Day 1: Visualizing fractions, equivalent fractions and fractions equal to one whole.
Day 2: Adding and Subtracting Fractions with Like Denominators, Finding Common Denominators
Day 3: Adding and Subtracting Fractions with Unlike Denominators
Day 4: Adding and Subtracting Mixed Numbers, Word Problems

Krystal M (she/her)

I'm a homeschooling mom and college instructor living in Colorado. I have a master's degree and enjoy teaching a variety of math and life skills classes on Outschool. I teach on Outschool part-time.  

Math Classes
I have experience teaching math from elementary school through college.  I taught for several years in the public K-12 school system prior to moving to the college level. I love working with learners who are having trouble grasping a concept and need some extra help! 

Personal Development and Executive Functioning Classes
Part of my college teaching involves working with incoming students on executive functioning skills and study skills as part of the first year college experience. Building these life skills in middle school and high school gives learners a head start on creating these important habits.

About Me
I have 3 children of my own, along with two kitties and backyard chickens. I love reading, gardening, cooking, teaching, camping and traveling.

Learning should be engaging and fun! I look forward to meeting your learner!

My policies:
I recommend that learners have their cameras on and participate fully to get the most benefit out of classes. Class recordings are not shared in social classes for learner privacy. Class recordings in academic classes will be shared if a learner was absent and needs to access what was missed.
