In this multi-day course, learners will learn how to solve math problems with multiple simultaneous operations including parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction. Lesson 1: Introduction to order of operations (PEMDAS). This lesson will introduce the order that we complete operations to solve multi-operation math problems. Learners will have a strong emphasis in this lesson on multiplication/division and addition/subtraction as it applies to order of operations. Learners will also be introduced to the impact that parentheses has on these types of problems as well. Lesson 2: Parentheses & Exponents. This lesson will continue the discussion on parentheses. Then, learners will be introduced to the concept of exponents and how exponents factor in to solving problems with multiple operations. Lesson 3: This lesson will introduce more advanced problems with order of operations to bring all concepts learned into application.
Learning Goals
The goal of this course is to increase learner confidence and competency on solving problems with multiple operations.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Ms. Sarah! I am very excited to meet you! I recently finished 8 years of college and graduated with my Doctorate degree in Audiology (diagnosing and treating hearing and balance disorders) in May 2020! I have been a teacher in many ways over the last 13 years. I am a 5th degree black belt in taekwondo and have been teaching taekwondo to students ages 4-18 over the last 14 years. I have also been a math tutor for more than 11 years, teaching students math concepts ranging from basic mathematics learned in K5 through high school algebra II, both face-to-face and virtually. Other math prep courses I have taught include several ACT standardized testing math prep courses. In the last couple of years I have added teaching ESL (English as a Second Language) virtually to international students ages 4-15. I have a strong passion for teaching, and I love helping students succeed and become more confident and independent. I enjoy taekwondo, traveling, reading, fishing, and spending time with my family. I can't wait to meet you, and I hope to see your learner in my classroom soon!!Reviews
