This is a two-part pre-algebra intensive course that will help grade 7 and 8 middle-school learners master the pre-algebra concepts required to succeed in the high school Algebra I and II. Algebra builds on top of the basic numeracy skills, such as fractions and integers and order of operations. Based on 15-year teaching experience, my 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!
