What's included

5 live meetings
3 hrs 45 mins in-class hours
Homework
2-4 hours per week. Homework assignments play a crucial role in reinforcing your understanding of algebraic concepts and enhancing your problem-solving skills. Here's a summary of how homework will be incorporated into our class: Purposeful Practice: Homework assignments are carefully designed to provide purposeful practice opportunities. They will feature a range of exercises that align with the topics covered in class, allowing you to apply what you've learned independently. Reinforcement of Concepts: Homework serves as a reinforcement tool, helping solidify your understanding of algebraic principles. Through practice, you will deepen your knowledge and gain fluency in solving equations, graphing functions, and manipulating algebraic expressions. Individual Progress Tracking: Completing homework allows you to track your individual progress and identify areas where you may need additional support. It provides valuable feedback on your understanding and highlights areas for improvement, allowing us to address any challenges together. Optional but Encouraged: Homework assignments are optional, but highly encouraged. Engaging with the assignments will enable you to maximize your learning and make the most of our class. Taking the time to practice independently will contribute to your overall growth and mastery of algebra. Personalized Feedback: If you choose to submit your homework for review, I will provide personalized feedback to help you gauge your performance and offer guidance for improvement. This feedback loop fosters a deeper understanding of the material and allows us to address any misconceptions or difficulties you may encounter. Remember, homework is an opportunity for independent exploration and growth. It complements our in-class learning and empowers you to take an active role in your mathematical development. While it is optional, I strongly encourage you to embrace the practice opportunities provided and engage with the homework assignments to enhance your understanding and mastery of algebraic concepts.
