Teacher Experience: I have a BS in Mathematics and a Masters in Education. I have taught Basic Math, Pre-Algebra, Algebra( Regular and Honors), Geometry(Regular and Honors) and Pre-Calculus. Each week we will cover a different concept that will help students with understanding concepts that will be developed during their 8th grade school year. In this course we will discuss the following topics Week 1: Review of Order of Operations Week 2: Algebraic Expressions Week 3: Rational numbers and Exponents Week 4: Solving Equations Week 5: Pythagorean Theorem Week 6: Linear Functions Each week we will have one session. In addition, I will post an assignment and an answer key to check your work. During the session I will go over the concept and give examples with time for students to work problems with me to ensure understanding. This is specifically targeted towards students who have completed the 7th grade concepts and are going into the 8th grade and want to get an understanding of some of the concepts that will be taught. Students will need paper or notebook, pencil or pen, and calculator (optional).
Learning Goals
Students will be able to increase their understanding of math concepts learned during their 8th grade math course.

Hi! My name is Gail Dykhuis. I have a BS in Mathematics and a Masters in Education. I have taught High School mathematics for 29 years. I have taught basic math, Pre-Algebra, Geometry, and Algebra 2 and Pre-Calculus. I have been Department Lead Teacher for the last 10 years. I have recently decided to join Outschool because I have a passion for Math and enjoy teaching and hope to connect with many students across the world. My teaching style is "I Do, We Do, You Do" . I work some problems to show you about the specific concept, We work some problems together to ensure you understand the process and then finally you do problems on your own to solidify your understanding.
