Welcome to Wild and Unstructured Learning's High School PreCalculus. This class is designed to be inclusive, engaging, and interactive. We take a fresh approach to precalculus in order to make math, not only accessible, but also enjoyable for all students. Our dedicated teachers are passionate about teaching and they are committed to fostering a positive and inclusive learning environment. They will provide regular feedback, offer additional support when needed, and create a safe space for all students to thrive. We believe that by embracing inclusivity, fostering engagement, and promoting interactivity, students will not only master precalculus, but also develop a love for mathematics that will serve them well in their future academic and professional endeavors. This class meets twice a week.
