Class Experience

US Grade 8 - 12
Your learner gets to decide what the topic is. Maybe there's a quiz or test coming up.  Perhaps Pre-Calculus focus topic classes have your student needing extra attention beyond what your student can get in a class with other students.

Pick from the following topics  It's helpful if you can send me the trouble spots and assignments ahead of time.  

Angles, Degrees & Radians, Special Right Triangles
Unit Circle
Definition of Ratios
Reciprocal and Quotient Relationships
Beyond Pythagorean - it's identity
Graphing Sine and Cosine
Graphing Trigonometric Functions
Shifting Sine and Cosine
Graphing Tangent
Modeling with Trig Functions
Inverse Sine
Inverse Cosine
Inverse Tangent
Solving Equations

Law of Cosines/Applying Law of Sines & Cosines
Solve Equations using Basic Identities
Addition and Subtraction Identities
Double Angle Identities

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Parents should make sure their learners are ready by making sure they know linear Algebra, Analytic Geometry, and quadratic equations.
Supply List
As the teacher, I will supply the information needed for class.  I will be using Kahn Academy's resources on Algebra and point the learners to specific videos and practice problems on that page. As a teacher who has done this many times before, I can tell you that using a web resource in place of a textbook far-better prepares a student for his/her future academic and professional career. 
 In college and the real world, nowadays, information is readily available if someone knows how to access it. All of the same information that is in textbooks are now available on credible free websites.

Students should also have a pencil,  and graph paper. A T!-84 or higher level calculator is encouraged and needed for some of the work in this class.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Sources
No additional sources are needed for this class.

I've been certified in the public schools for teaching math in middle and high schools. I received additional certified training for gifted and talented learners. I taught math for sixteen years and I've been a personal SAT tutor for seven years. My students have typically raised their scores between 100 and 300 points.  As a chemical engineer and project management professional in the world of business consulting and information technology consulting, I've completed over five levels of college calculus and applied mathematics and used these math and computing skills throughout my career.  

The students I have taught had varying learning abilities that ranged from one with pronounced learning disabilities to gifted and talented. When it came to PSAT's and SAT's, each of them with impressive improvements in their scores. 

It can be done!  I used a focused approach. We honed in on trouble areas, really understood the underlying math concept, and drilled for mastery.  

Rest assured, students finish my classes and turn to their parents and say, "I finally get it!"  Here are some reviews from classes here on Outschool to show what I mean...

From CT - 
Love this teacher! My kids are requesting more of her classes. Thank you teacher Kitty! 
Energetic and patient teacher. I accidentally signed up my younger son with his older brother and she made the class interesting for both of them and they asked to join another class of teacher Kitty.  Thank you !

From William-
Wonderful class. The class speed was just right, and our daughter was able to follow along relatively well. She benefited greatly from this opportunity to reinforce her understanding the solving quadratic equations. Thanks!!!

From Dillon-
This the second linear equation class my son took from Teacher Kitty.  My son felt he learned a lot on this subject and took very useful notes, and gained a lot more confidence than when he just started learning it.  

From Mary -
I am really pleased that our first lesson at Outschool was such a fantastic one. Kitty is really good and my son loved that he could understand her clearly (initially worried as he is not American or in America ) I observed that she really took her time to explain terminologies and she gave the class more time to really grasp the lesson. My shy son eventually came out of his shell and contributed to the class. We are looking forward to more classes with her.
