¡Boom! ¡Lo logré! Álgebra 1 | Problemas verbales sobre sistemas de ecuaciones lineales

Take the monster out of linear equation word problems!!!

I've been teaching 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 result of my tutoring.

My secret to getting these results is making sure that the students truly understand the underlying concepts when practicing their problems.

I want to do the same for your student. 

Many of my one-time math courses hone in on one skill addressed in many PSAT/SAT questions. The ones related to the content here are called  "Boom! Nailed It! Algebra Topic". I take that skill and walk the students through it with a set goal to know how to tackle test questions in that subject area.  That could make a big difference in a student's final score!

Learners in this lesson will focus on the part of the PSAT / SAT called “The Heart of Algebra”, and specifically on solving linear systems of equation word problems. Students will learn to identify patterns in the way story problems are written, learn how to read the story and translate what's happening into equations they can solve.

Students will first review linear equation word problems and how to understand a word problem enough to build the linear equation and solve it. We will then practice the easier questions and, as mastery develops, move to the harder questions. We apply the  "I do"/ "We do" / "You Do"  to the more difficult questions. 

Thanks for having your learner study with me.  I can't wait to see him/her in class!
