In this course, students will:

-develop problem solving skills in order to solver real-world problems
-develop number sense with integers and rational numbers
-expand their knowledge of exponents and square roots to simplify expressions
-use inverse operations to solve one-step, two-step, and multi-step equations and inequalities
-use the Least Common Multiple to add rational numbers and solve equations involving rational numbers
-use proportions to find the percent of a number
-use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing sides of a right triangles
-combine like terms in order to perform operations with polynomials

I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics as well as a Master's Degree in Education.  With 20 years of experience teaching in the classroom coupled with 5 years of experience teaching online to students with varying abilities and needs, I feel extremely qualified to deliver this instruction to learners via Outschool.  My love and dedication for Pre-Algebra stems from the knowledge that this is such a critical time for students to make the connections of elementary-level mathematics to higher-level thinking that will be key for success in courses such as Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry or Pre-Calculus (just to name a few).
