Getting Ready for Calculus!! [SUMMER PREP] 🔢☀️🎒

About

Hello!! After getting a 5 on my AP Calc BC exam last year, I made this class to help you do the same: to get a FIVE on your AP exam this year and ACE your calculus class 💯💯💯

Goals of this course:
- Sharpen pre-calc & algebra skills ✏️
- Get a head start on calculus concepts such as limits, derivatives, and integrals ⏩
- Ask questions about any specific topics, whether related to the math or the exam itself 💭

Good luck on your Calculus course this year-- I'm excited to work with you to get a head start in math.

I'm a high school junior looking to help other students in math! (I'm super passionate about math; I got a 5 on Calc BC last year and a perfect math score on the SAT this year! I'm also on my school's math team and got a 7 on the AIME this year, which was super exciting for me!!) At school, I love participating in robotics (FTC), Science Olympiad, Science Bowl, and math team. In my free time, I enjoy drawing, playing piano, playing chess, cubing, and spending time with my friends. I also love musical theatre!!
