What's included

30 live meetings
85 in-class hours
Homework
2-4 hours per week. Answers to the odd questions are found in the back of the book. This is a great way for learners and parents to check answers.
Assessment
For those wanting to test their learner, if requested, I can provide the detailed solutions to each chapter's practice test. However, this class is a non-graded course. We practice many exercises together in class. Having your learner complete some of the at-home math practice exercises daily is recommended. Each week in the Outschool classroom, I post screenshots of some of the notes and exercises from our time in class. Additionally, the answers to the odd-numbered exercises are in the back of the textbook.

Learner Review:

Ms. Vanleer teaches so thoroughly and is very patient and good at explaining things. With her instruction and such a welcoming class atmosphere, my knowledge, comfort, and confidence with math has tremendously grown. I can't recommend her classes enough!!  

------------------

This is a full-curriculum course. Learners can join the class any week. See class description and syllabus for more details about this class and weekly lessons. 

**Glencoe Math Geometry (Second Semester) will be offered for the spring semester.

As a person who struggled with math as a younger student, I can empathize with and relate to learners as they try to understand new concepts. I display patience with the learners, give them time to respond, and offer encouragement for their efforts. Students should be made to feel comfortable when they are willing to participate in class.

This is a complete academic course covering lessons in the first half of Geometry. The goal is to cover 2-3 lessons each week. In this live group class, learners will meet twice a week to learn and practice topics in the first half of Geometry. Some topics include angle measurements and construction, classifying triangles, indirect proofs, arcs and chords, volume and area and transformations.

During each class, the new lesson will be introduced to the learners. We will then complete some exercises together. Learners are encouraged to ask questions in class. I will make every effort to involve learners in class participation.

As appropriate, I incorporate review material into the lessons to further solidify the math concepts to the learners.

Students should be familiar with addition, subtraction, multiplication and division facts.

Students will need the following textbook: Glencoe Geometry, Student Edition (ISBN-10: 0078651069 or ISBN-13: 978-0078651069) **Many used copies of the textbook can be found online.

Answers to the odd questions are found in the back of the book. This is a great way for learners and parents to check answers.

Come prepared to listen and learn. I monitor learners' understanding (usually through facial expressions). Open cameras also allow learners to interact and experience a class environment.

I have been teaching math (as a classroom teacher and tutor) for 25+ years. As a person who struggled with math as a younger student, I can empathize with and relate to students as they try to learn new and difficult concepts. A lot of encouragement goes a long way.
