¡Tú puedes! Álgebra 1 de Saxon Math, primer semestre, con un profesor acreditado

We will complete the first half of Saxon Algebra 1 (An Incremental Development-third edition) in this 16 week long semester course.

Prerequisite:
1) The successful completion of the previous semester of this book series.
2) Placement tests can be found here: https://www.christianbook.com/page/homeschool/math/saxon-math?search=saxon%20math&search_term=saxon%20math&ps_exit=RETURN|legacy

Class time:
I will teach concepts for the lesson and we will complete the "Practice". Learners should come to class prepared with their textbook and pencil. They should have paper. Students will have plenty of opportunity to ask questions throughout class.  

This class will meet for 50 minutes each week.

Class topics can be found in the table of contents found here: https://www.christianbook.com/saxon-algebra-home-study-third-edition/9781565771345/pd/791230 - I am not affiliated with this website nor am I suggesting it, I am only showing the table of contents.  

Guardians should let me know if they would like to be aware of participation (or lack of participation), video on/off, etc, in class. 

Camera/Video: I prefer the camera to be on the entire class time so that I can see from their facial expressions if they are understanding the concepts or not. With video off, if the learner is not replying, I do not know if they are confused or distracted. I prefer video on with all of my math courses, but it is not required.

Refund Policy: 
All of my semester courses are set at “moderate” refund policy. 
Full refund until a week in advance, or within 24 hours of purchase. Then 75% refund within the first week (of the first class). 

I will give homework suggestions and encourage learners to grade work so they can see what mistakes they made and learn from their mistakes.  

I love math and making it simple for learners!
