Series Details

About

This series will be five sessions in length and will be about improving your math skills. Before you go into Pre-Algebra or Algebra 1, you need to be able to solve on-the-fly! We'll use methods like brain theory and rote practice to make sure you are set to go before your first exam this year. Sign up today! Limited spots. This series was selected to participate in a special video beta project. Here is my video. https://www.loom.com/embed/f564f992bcce47df896c837b3b5c9f99?hide_owner=true&hide_share=true&hide_title=true&hideEmbedTopBar=true&hideSpeed

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Attending each session is important as each one builds off of the next. However, if you truly are unavailable, you may skip it without penalty.

Due to the short length of the series, I will not be able to review with you in class if you were absent. You need to attend office hours or use the Chat With Tutor option to catch-up.

About the Tutor

Certification Team Lead - let me know if I can help! 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗠𝗲 😁 "The capacity to learn is a gift; the ability to learn is a skill; the willingness to learn is a choice." I'm Akash and I'll be one of your tutors here at Schoolhouse! I am a student in California and I am committed to helping you, so look out for my upcoming sessions! I believe in the simplicity of mathematics and other subjects, hence my AoPS username, and I want to help others realize the beauty too! I volunteer a lot here at Schoolhouse and am excited to be part of the future of learning. Your feedback is much appreciated, so be sure to include detail so I know how I can improve. I highlight positive feedback. :)
