Hi! I’m Tanirika, a new volunteer tutor excited to support students in pre-algebra. While I may be new to tutoring, I have a strong passion for math and a desire to help learners build their confidence and skills. I believe in creating a friendly and supportive environment where every student can thrive. I’m eager to share my enthusiasm for math and help students understand key concepts through engaging activities and relatable examples. Let’s work together to make math enjoyable and accessible!

Schedule

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Students are expected to attend all scheduled sessions, as consistent attendance is vital for understanding the material and maintaining group dynamics. Please arrive on time, as late arrivals can disrupt the learning process. If you are unable to attend a session, notify the instructor at least 24 hours in advance when possible, allowing us to provide support for missed content. Students who miss a session are responsible for catching up on any missed materials and assignments. If a student misses more than two consecutive sessions without prior notification, they may be withdrawn from the course to ensure a cohesive learning environment. Active participation in discussions and group activities is encouraged, as it enhances the overall learning experience for everyone.

Two-variable equations

Sun 12:00 AM - 1:00 AM UTCNov 10, 12:00 AM - 1:00 AM UTC

In this session, we’ll delve into two-variable equations, a fundamental concept in algebra that lays the groundwork for understanding relationships between variables. You’ll learn how to write, interpret, and graph equations using
y=mx + b, where 𝑚 is the slope and 𝑏 is the y-intercept. We’ll explore how to solve these equations using substitution and elimination methods and apply them to real-world scenarios.

Expect interactive activities, collaborative problem-solving, and opportunities to ask questions. By the end of the session, you’ll have a solid understanding of two-variable equations and the skills to work with them confidently! Join me for an engaging and supportive learning experience!
