When we meet together, I review previous material with an engaging activity, answer student questions, and teach new material. Students are encouraged to actively participate with via various methods, even anonymously if they are shy. Students are expected to complete practice assignments between classes. The only way to learn Algebra is to DO Algebra! Students will turn in assignments to me between classes and receive helpful feedback to encourage correction and improvement, as needed. Three optional tests will be provided upon request. Tests will be graded, and a percentage score will be provided to students and parents. A final class percentage score can also provided for interested families. Students who would like to audit the class and not turn in assignments are also welcomed to enroll. I am happy to accommodate all learners! Look at my reviews on Outschool to read about how other students enjoyed and learned from my Mathematics courses.
