This series was cancelled on February 21, 2025. We're very sorry–you can explore more Calculus series here. All 1:1 and group chats related to this series are disabled 7 days after the last session.

About

I am back to host another wonderful series: LINEAR ALGEBRA! I hope you all can join!

This series will cover the content of a semester of college Linear Algebra and is traditionally taken after Calculus

PREREQ:
Pre-Calculus (Surprising, right?) . . . but I STRONGLY recommend a successful completion of AP® Calculus BC

why the Prereq?
You don't use Calculus in this course, but understanding vectors and matrices well will get you ahead. The only part in AP® Calculus BC useful for this is the vectors unit, so please review that on your own because we will do a quick recap of the basics of vectors and matrices when this series begins!

STRUCTURE:
1. Lecture (60-90 min)
2. Optional Homework
*repeat above until unit is complete*
3. Problem Set for the Unit
4. Unit TEST


Here is the syllabus for the series:
1. Matrices and Systems of Equations
2. Matrix Operations and Matrix Inverses
3. Determinants
4. Norm, Inner Product, and Vector Spaces
5. Basis, Dimension, and Subspaces
6. Linear Transformations
7. Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors
