About

This is a short series introducing a few key topics of Algebra 2. If you're preparing to get ahead when you return to school, or want to grasp the basic concepts to support further Algebra 2 learning, this series is perfect for you!

The topics we will cover are polynomials (arithmetic, factorisation and division) and complex numbers.

In sessions, I will briefly explain the topics and then we will do a few practice questions together. If you have any related homework questions, you can send them to me in advance or project them on your screen so we can work on it during the session. Feel free to indicate if you would like a more in-depth explanation, or if you would like to go straight to answering questions.

Hi everyone! I am a high school senior looking to help others with mathematics topics up to Calculus. I am currently enrolled in Higher Level Mathematics Analysis and Approaches in IB, so I can help with any maths topics up to Calculus. My hobbies include drawing and going on walks. I also enjoy watching, playing and analysing story-based video games.
