This is a follow up to Mastering Pre-Algebra And Algebra Essentials part 2.
The  way I teach this skill is very easy to learn and your child will be prepared for success in Algebra.
I will show students how to do an exercise on the white board. They will learn  by actually doing example exercises during class. I will repeat with another exercise and will explain as many times as needed until the students are ready to do the exercises by themselves. Once started, I will check their answers for accuracy and follow up with any necessary explanations. I encourage all participants to try as many exercises as possible. I follow up the class with an upload of homework with the solutions.
The course breakdown is as follows:
Week 1: Combining like terms:  Ex: ab +2xy - 2ab -3xy + d
Week 2:  Using letters for numbers.(Evaluation of functions).  Ex: Y= 2X + 5  when X = -2
Week 3: Exponents (Review rules). Emphasis on negative exponents.
Week 4: Distributive property + solving equations. Ex: 3(X  -5) - 5(X + 2) = 6
Week 5: Writing algebraic expressions (words to  mathematical symbols).
Week 6:  Solving for X from a word problems.
Week 7:  Solving equations with parentheses. Ex:    -3(3 - x) = -4( x - 5)
Week 8:  Solving literal equations. Ex: Y = X - 3B . Solve for B.

NOTE: If no one shows after 10 minutes.
             Class is cancelled.
No refunds, no makeups , no exceptions.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Florida Teaching Certificate in Mathematics

As a private tutor since 1995 I learned that students want a math teacher who is friendly, non-judgmental and is interested in their success in math.
Students want concise and simple explanations.

 I have developed my own method of teaching this skill. 
I have successfully taught this skill to hundreds of students .
Once you learn it you will never forget it. 
After watching Khan Academy and You tube videos on this topic I have seen nothing like the method I teach.
This skill is essential in order to learn Algebra properly.
I provide quality instruction to your child, you will be glad you chose me as his/her math teacher.
