*Math tutoring classes come with free email support for weekly subscribers.
Welcome to 8th Grade and Pre-Algebra Math Tutoring.  In this small group tutoring session, you will have the opportunity to obtain homework help or math tutoring for any concepts you are struggling with.  The topics generally found in an 8th grade and Pre-Algebra mathematics curriculum include:
Laws of Exponents, The Number System to Irrational Numbers, Linear Equations, Square Roots, Cube Roots, Operations with Scientific Notation, Functions, Graphing and Graphs of Linear and Non-Linear Equations, Pythagorean Theorem, Transformations, Distance on a Coordinate Plane, Understand and Solving Problems with  Volume of Cylinders, Cones, and Spheres, Scatter Plots, Lines of Best Fit, and Probability.
There are many other 8th grade topics to learn as well.  Math is a magical and wonderful life skill.  I look forward to helping you develop a deeper love and understanding of math.  
Pre-requisites:  Near or complete mastery of Multiplication Tables and basic multiplication and division skills such as 42/6 = 7.  Willingness to attend and participate in class activities with good listening skills.  Teacher will model using whiteboard, pdf notes, slides, video clips, and games.  
Each week we will have a focus topic for extension, remediation, or just practice.  Depending on the needs of the learners enrolled, this can change.  The following lesson plan calendar is tentative and each topic will only take up a portion of the class to allow time for homework questions and additional tutoring.  Breakout rooms will be used to break kids up into  learning pathways and to facilitate mathematical discourse between learners.  I will move between rooms to answer questions and model the use of math vocabulary in relation to mathematical discourse between students.  This course will allow time for both homework help and a focus topic each week.  The topics below follow state and national standards for 8th grade.  This course may be used for state test prep and homework help.   Please contact me for 1-1 tutoring or to take this course as a flex class.
