Hi! I’m a recent high school graduate with a strong background in math, including Math AP, and I'm gearing up to study Data Science! Math has always been my passion, and I’m currently exploring how to help others understand it better. I’ve found that guiding peers through their math struggles makes me happy, and I’m eager to keep learning how to tutor more effectively. But when I am not doing Math, I am probably enjoying some video editing, nature or just sleeping.

SESSION 8

Proportional relationships

Proportional relationships

Tue 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTCDec 31, 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTC

In this class, we’ll explore the concept of proportional relationships and learn how to identify and work with them in real-world scenarios. We’ll start by understanding what it means for two quantities to be proportional and how to recognize proportional relationships in tables, graphs, and equations. Together, we’ll practice setting up and solving problems that involve proportions, using techniques like cross-multiplication to find missing values. You’ll also have the chance to solve some problems on your own to solidify your understanding. You will have an OPTIONAL 10 question homework.

One-step and two-step equations & inequalities

One-step and two-step equations & inequalities

Sat 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTCJan 4, 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTC

In this class, we’ll dive into the basics of solving equations and inequalities, focusing on one-step and two-step problems. We’ll start by learning how to isolate the variable in simple equations and inequalities, using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Then, we’ll build on this foundation with two-step problems, practicing how to handle equations and inequalities that require multiple steps to solve. We’ll work through examples together and discuss strategies to keep each step organized, and then you’ll have a chance to try out problems on your own. There is an OPTIONAL 10 question homework available.

Roots, exponents, & scientific notation

Roots, exponents, & scientific notation

Tue 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTCJan 7, 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTC

n this class, we’ll tackle three essential math concepts: roots, exponents, and scientific notation. We’ll start by exploring roots and exponents, learning how they are related and how to simplify expressions that involve them. Then, we’ll move on to scientific notation, a powerful tool for expressing very large or very small numbers efficiently. Through guided examples, we’ll practice converting numbers to and from scientific notation, as well as performing operations with exponents. After working together on these concepts, you’ll have the opportunity to try problems on your own to reinforce what you’ve learned. You will have an OPTIONAL 10 question homework.

Multi-step equations

Multi-step equations

Sat 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTCJan 11, 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTC

In this class, we’ll dive into solving multi-step equations, building on the foundational skills of simpler one- and two-step equations. We’ll learn strategies to solve equations that involve multiple operations, including combining like terms, using the distributive property, and isolating the variable across several steps. Together, we’ll work through examples to see how to approach these equations systematically, and discuss tips to avoid common pitfalls. You’ll also have time to practice solving multi-step equations on your own to reinforce your skills. You will have an OPTIONAL 10 question homework.

Two-variable equations

Two-variable equations

Tue 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTCJan 14, 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTC

In this class, we’ll explore equations with two variables, a fundamental concept in algebra. We’ll learn what it means for an equation to have two variables and how to find and interpret solutions in the form of ordered pairs. We’ll also discuss how to represent these equations on a graph, where each solution corresponds to a point. Through guided examples, we’ll practice setting up and solving two-variable equations, as well as interpreting the relationships between the variables. You’ll have a chance to practice on your own, building confidence in working with two-variable equations. You will have a OPTIONAL 10 question homework after class.

Functions and linear models

Functions and linear models

Sat 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTCJan 18, 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTC

In this class, we’ll explore the world of functions and linear models, key concepts in algebra that help us understand relationships between variables. We’ll start by learning what a function is, how to recognize functions from equations, tables, and graphs, and how to interpret function notation. Then, we’ll dive into linear models, discovering how they represent constant rates of change and create straight-line graphs. We’ll work through examples together to understand how to create, interpret, and apply linear models, and you’ll have a chance to practice identifying and working with functions on your own. You will have an OPTIONAL 10 question homework.

Systems of equations

Systems of equations

Tue 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTCJan 21, 12:30 AM - 1:30 AM UTC

In this class, we’ll explore systems of equations, a powerful tool for solving problems involving multiple relationships between variables. We’ll learn what it means for two or more equations to form a system and discuss methods for finding solutions, including graphing, substitution, and elimination. Together, we’ll work through examples to understand how to set up and solve systems of equations, interpret their solutions, and recognize when systems have no solution, one solution, or infinitely many solutions. You’ll also get a chance to practice solving systems on your own, applying these methods to reinforce your understanding. You will have an OPTIONAL 10 question homework,
