Beginner - Advanced Level
Learners will be introduced to the properties of the various two-dimensional shapes and the perimeter and area formulas. They will build understanding of the Pythagorean Theorem and the geometrical transformations. This is an Introductory level Geometry module. My teaching approach is interactive and engaging, aiming to make the learning experience enjoyable and effective. I believe in providing clear explanations, guided practice, and continuous support to ensure that learners grasp the concepts thoroughly. Please, message me if you have any question. I am looking forward to help you or your child succeed in Math!
