Prerequisites: Basic Algebra or 8th Grade Level Math. Why This Class/Class Description: - This is a class on pre calculus/calculus track which is typically covered in rigorous 9th , 10th, 11th, and 12th grade Math programs. Algebra is a prerequisite for this class. This is part 1 of a 6 part series that covers Pre Calculus, Differential Calculus, and Integral Calculus. Keywords: Calculus , Pre Calculus , Pre-Calculus, Differential Calculus , Calculus , Integral Calculus , 12th grade math , 11th grade math, 10th grade math , 9th grade math , math , calculus Class Structure: 4 Weeks Homework is checked and graded. Feedback is provided. Cumulative Test at the end of each module. Test graded and feedback provided. Students may choose to be graded and be issued a certificate of completion at the end of the course. Book: 1. Textbook "Understanding Basic Calculus" By SK Chung available online (free/online) OR any Calculus Book will do. 2. All classes are recorded are available after each meeting. 3. Class white board discussions are captured in pdf files and made available for students afterwards. Syllabus: For detailed syllabus, please send me a message and I will send you the syllabus pdf for review. Teaching each topic listed in the syllabus goes through these 3 steps (What to expect each week) - Day 1: Explain a major topic from the syllabus side by side with helper examples to help demonstrate the concepts. - Day 2: Summarize prior day topic and show types of questions and approach/steps for solving them + in class practice. - Day 3: In Class Competition (Jeopardy style) + Prizes to winners. Competition performance counts as that of a quiz with grades being assigned to students according to their scores. Week 1 (Pre-Calculus) Sets Set Operations Real Numbers The Number Sets Exponents Radicals Week 2 (Pre-Calculus) Functions and Graphs Functions Domains and Ranges of Functions Graphs of Functions Compositions of Functions Inverse Functions Weeks 3,4 (Pre-Calculus) Algebraic Identities and Algebraic Expressions Graphs of Equations Solving Linear Equations Solving Quadratic Equations Remainder Theorem and Factor Theorem Solving Linear Inequalities Quadratic Inequalities Lines Pythagoras Theorem, Distance Formula and Circles Parabola Keywords: Calculus , Pre Calculus , Pre-Calculus, Differential Calculus , Calculus , Integral Calculus , 12th grade math , 11th grade math, 10th grade math , 9th grade math , math , calculus

Parental Guidance
Note to Families: With the current state of the economy and financial challenges some are facing, I understand it can be difficult to pay for your child's education and for my classes. So, please, if you cannot afford this class (or any of my classes) but still need to enroll your child in it, please send me a message and I will send you an individualized discount coupon that covers the affordability gap. Thanks
