This is a one-time course covering three concepts. This course is designed for students who are ready to enter Algebra 1 but need a refresher on the concepts listed below, as well as students who are currently struggling with basic Algebra 1 skills. Students will need to have taken my Introduction to Algebra 1 (Part 1) class before taking this course. Concept 1: Combining Like Terms - What is a "like term"? Which terms in an expression can be combined? What is the coefficient of the term? What do we do with the coefficients when combining? This section will cover all of these questions. By the end of class, students will be able to solve problems such as 4x + 6x =? Concept 2: Distributive Property - The distributive property is used very often in algebra. Having a solid understanding of this concept is essential to your child's future success in mathematics. This section will go over the rules and common misconceptions of the distributive property. By the end of class, students will be able to solve problems such as 3(x + 4) =? Concept 3: Simplifying Algebraic Expressions - During this section, we will utilize all the concepts we learned during part 1 of this course (adding/subtracting/multiplying/dividing positive and negative integers, absolute values, and the order of operations) as well as combining like terms and the distributive property to simplify basic algebraic expressions. My teaching style is very interactive. I will utilize colorful slides/visuals to explain each concept. Students will be encouraged to give input, ask questions, and provide answers throughout the lesson. If a student is confused about a particular concept or problem, I will utilize Zoom's whiteboard feature to break down the problem into simpler steps. After each concept discussion, we will work as a class to solve several practice problems. If time permits, students will be split into groups and race to see who can correctly solve the provided problems first.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Hi, I'm Olivia!
I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from Arizona State University. I maintained a 4.0 while pursuing my B.S.E and graduated summa cum laude. I have a great love for mathematics and enjoy assisting others to find their passion for it as well. My background in electrical engineering has given me extensive experience in a large variety of mathematics courses.
Personal statement:
Whether I'm teaching a class of first-graders or a teenage student in their final years of high school, I strive to make learning accessible, enjoyable, and fun. I've led young students in math classes as dinosaur hunters, princesses, and wizards, complete with costumes. For students at more advanced levels, I break down even the toughest subjects to ensure comprehension (although costumes are not required).
Subjects I teach:
I have worked with a variety of mathematics subjects. These include elementary school mathematics, pre-algebra, algebra 1, algebra 2, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus, and finite mathematics.
Ages I work with:
I have experience with all age groups. I have taught kindergarteners and first-graders while in costume and college students working through their mathematics requirements.
My teaching style:
I'm an energetic and engaged teacher. I've taught students with varying comprehension and confidence levels, from eager kindergartners to college students struggling to get through their required classes. No matter where they're starting, I work with students to identify areas that need to be mastered while building confidence along the way. I've worked with children with learning disabilities, autistic children, advanced and gifted children, college students, adult learners, and more. For me, the most rewarding part of being a teacher is experiencing the moment when a concept “clicks” for a student.
Hobbies and interests:
* Traveling—I’ve visited ten different countries, and my favorite so far is Italy
* Cooking and baking—my Thanksgiving gravy and bruschetta recipes are family legends
* Horseback riding—I have two Arabian horses named Aria and Adonis
Please feel free to contact me if you’re interested in any alternative times or dates for any of my classes. I hope to see your child in my classroom soon!Reseñas
