Following is the list of concepts I generally come across for the Grade 8 level. Based on the learner's need we would tweak the list as well. 1. Indices and Standard form or number. 2. Money and Finance: Simple Interest and Compound Interest. 3. Money and Finance: Profit and Loss 4. Algebraic Representation and manipulations: Expansion, Factorization, Substitution, transformation (make x the subject of formulae) 5. Algebraic Indices - review of laws of powers and exponents. 6. Solve linear Equations and construct the linear equation for a given word problem. 7. Simultaneous equation solution. 8. Graph of linear functions. 9. Geometrical construction. Perpendicular Bisector, Angle Bisector Next Class (Semester 2) will cover the remaining topics 10. Angle Properties of Quadrilateral 11. Angle properties of Polygons 12. Mensuration - unit conversion 13. Area and Perimeter of compound Shapes. 14. Volume. 15. Coordinate Geometry. 16. Gradient and Equation of a straight line. 17. Student to bring their own topic. Recap as requested/extra practice 18. Recap and final summary/ Extra Practic Questions A few practice questions will be done in class. A lot more practice questions will be given as homework. Learners are requested to submit the homework within a day using the OS messaging system. Feedback for the same will be provided. If there is any other topic that learners like to include in the above list, we can surely try and accommodate given how much time we have. The class gives the best results if 2 kids take it together.
Learning Goals

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree from University of Texas at Arlington
Hi there,
A Telecommunication Engineer turned into a Maths teacher here, following my passion and heart!! Being mom of 2 school going children, I always feel that learning Math should be a thought provoking group discussion. Child should be engaged in a way that Math starts making sense to him/her.
I had been a Master Tutor for Math at University of Texas at Arlington from 2004 to 2005, while I was pursuing my Masters of Science - Electrical Engineering with focus in Wireless Engineering. At UTA, I was awarded title of Master Tutor after having taught for 500 + hours and completing Level 1 to Level 3 Tutor's training.
I enjoy teaching:
Higher Grade Subjects like:
Business Math, Calculus, College Algebra, Geometry, Elementary Statistics, Differential Equations
Lower Grade Subjects like:
Algebra, Geometry, Number Systems etc
