Series Details
About
This series is designed to cover the entire bulk of Algebra I. Everything ranging from linear equations, inequalities, and functions will be covered. Whether you're entering an Algebra I class for the 2021-2022 school year, or you're polishing your skills before entering higher-leveled math courses, this series will help you succeed.
✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY
Try and attend as many meetup sessions as possible. Algebra is a cumulative course. However, I also host optional office hours a day following a meetup session (for short reviews of missed content or general Algebra Q&As, I will be there to assist you.) If you're unable to make it to a session, give prior notice. Excessive absence may result in a withdrawal from the series.
