This series was cancelled by the tutor on March 24, 2024. We're very sorry–you can explore more Pre-Algebra series here. All 1:1 and group chats related to this series are disabled 7 days after the last session.

About

I will introduce the concept of variables and algebraic expressions. We will have three sessions and cover the concepts in Unit 6 of Khan Academy's Pre-Algebra course.
﻿
The topics covered are variables, parts of algebraic expressions, evaluating expressions,  writing algebraic expressions, the distributive property, combining like terms, and equivalent expressions. 
﻿
Each session will be one hour long. They will consist of introductions, a recap of the previous session, a short lesson, completing practice questions together, completing a Khan Academy quiz, and ending with time for questions. The first session will also include orientation and testing prior knowledge. In the last session, we will cover concepts and also review everything and test knowledge.
﻿
There will also be an optional office hours session after the second session.
﻿
The only prior knowledge required is knowledge of arithmetic. Learners should be prepared to dive into these concepts of Pre-Algebra. This series could serve as an introduction to the topics but also as a review for other learners.
﻿
Please have a pencil/pen and paper with you at every session. Having a notebook or few sheets to write notes and example questions is recommended over simply scratch paper.
﻿
If the timings do not work for you, feel free to request a change in time. I have an open schedule and want to accommodate all learners.
﻿
I hope to see you in the sessions!

Hi! I am a high school student from Illinois. I am passionate about learning and would like to share that with others, as well as learn some new things myself here at Schoolhouse. I am very committed and would be willing to help students learn new concepts and improve their skills. I am studying for the SAT and ACT and am part of the Advanced Placement program at my high school. I am taking AP Seminar, AP U.S. History, AP Chemistry, Spanish IV Honors, Accelerated Precalculus, and Anatomy and Physiology, so I might need some help with these subjects! I have completed AP World History and AP Human Geography, so I am happy to tutor these subjects! I can also tutor general biology and chemistry, and math subjects through Algebra 2. I plan to go into medicine and enroll in a BS/MD program. I am pursuing some medical extracurriculars, and along with tutoring, I do Kathak dance, play tennis, and play the piano.
