고등학교 대수학(대수학 I) 2025년 겨울 학기

Class Experience
                                       Concerning accommodations. (For students who have Math anxiety)

 I set up the chat in the class for private. So students can answer questions in the chat and only I get to see the answers.I do not call on anyone to answer questions in front of the class, I simply write an exercise on the whiteboard and encourage all to answer via the chat, again in private and I give you private feedback. This lowers the anxiety level a ton. :)

Description:

Prerequisite:  Students need to be fluent in :The four operations with positive and negative numbers.
                                                                       Be able to plot points on the X and Y axis.
                                                                       The use  of the distributive property.
                                                                        Evaluating basic expressions.
                                                                        
NOTE : Students must have a reasonable amount of academic maturity to enroll. 

NOTE: If no students show after the first 10 minutes of class, class is cancelled. No makeups,no refunds, no exceptions.

The way I teach this skill is very easy to learn and your child will be prepared for success in Algebra.
 I will show students how to do an exercise on the white board. They will learn  by actually doing example exercises during class. I will repeat with another exercise and will explain as many times as needed until the students are ready to do the exercises by themselves. Once started, I will check their answers for accuracy and follow up with any necessary explanations. I encourage all participants to try as many exercises as possible. I follow up the class with an upload of homework with the solutions.
