The way I teach this skill is very easy to learn and your child will be prepared for success in Geometry. I will show students how to do an exercise on the white board. They will learn by actually doing example exercises during class. I will repeat with another exercise and will explain as many times as needed until the students are ready to do the exercises by themselves. Once started, I will check their answers for accuracy and follow up with any necessary explanations. I encourage all participants to try as many exercises as possible. I follow up the class with an upload of homework with the solutions. The course breakdown is as follows: Week 1: Learning to calculate the angles of a quadrilateral. Numeric and algebraic. Week 2:Calculating perimeter. (Squares, rectangles ,parallelograms, trapezoids and triangles.) Week 3: Calculating area. (Squares, rectangles, parallelograms, trapezoids and triangles.) Week 4: Calculating area of composite figures.(L and U shaped rectangles.) Week 5: Introduction to surface area. (Cubes, rectangular prisms and rectangular pyramids.) Week 6: Calculating volume.(cubes, rectangular prisms and cylinders.) Week 7: Circles. (Circumference, area and introduction to Pi.) (Arc length and Area of a Sector) Week 8: Spheres.(3-D circles, surface area and volume.) Week 9: Calculating areas within areas.(concentric circles etc.) Week 10: Review with Applications.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from University of Houston
As a private tutor since 1995 I learned that students want a math teacher who is friendly, non-judgmental and is interested in their success in math.
Students want concise and simple explanations.
I have developed my own method of teaching this skill.
I have successfully taught this skill to hundreds of students .
Once you learn it you will never forget it.
After watching Khan Academy and You tube videos on this topic I have seen nothing like the method I teach.
This skill is essential in order to learn Geometry properly.
I provide quality instruction to your child, you will be glad you chose me as his/her math teacher.
