For a quick explanation see the video above. Prerequisite: Be able to: *add and subtract integers (part I) *multiply integers (part II). The way I teach this skill is very easy to learn and your child will be prepared for success in Algebra. I will first show students how to do an exercise on the whiteboard. Next, they will learn how to multiply inside one parentheses, two parentheses, three parentheses, etc. By actually doing sample exercises during class, they will learn the skill rather quickly. 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 always follow up the class with an upload of homework with the solutions. Parents will get some peace of mind knowing its possible for their child to learn math skills with no tears, no arguments and no doubts. Concerning accommodations. (For students who have Math anxiety) I set up the chat in the class for private. So students can answer questions in the chat and only I get to see the answers.I do not call on anyone to answer questions in front of the class, I simply write an exercise on the whiteboard and encourage all to answer via the chat, again in private and I give you private feedback. This lowers the anxiety level a ton. :)
