Assessment
Assessments available upon request.

Class Experience

I will release video taped lessons with formatted notes and practice sheets at the beginning of each week. Students are encouraged to post questions on the classroom and students and myself will address all questions in a collaborative forum. I will post a challenge problem mid week that the students can tackle together or submit individual solutions. The students can interact and engage at the level that they are comfortable with. I can be available to conference with students if necessary.
