Series Details
About
- We'll go over introductory calculus topics of Limits and Derivatives to help you prepare for the class
- This series will be fun and relaxed with no strict rules, but please show up
- A prerequisite of precalculus is required
- This series is not meant to teach calculus and we won't go in-depth into topics. It's intended to give you a head start and a chance to familiarize yourself with topics to make next year easier.
- Let me know if you have any questions and I hope to see you there!
✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY
I won't withdraw anyone from the series, but it will be your own responsibility to catch up if you miss a class.

Hi, my name is Olivia and I hope to see you in one of my sessions! In my free time I enjoy playing tennis, going to the beach and spending time with friends and family. Math has always been my favorite subject and I'm looking forward to helping others get better at it.
