About

This course is designed specifically for students planning to take the ACT test and want to work on the math skills they need for it. However, students who need to revise some topics for school or are planning to take the SAT can also benefit from the course. Over the next three months, we will meet weekly to discuss all of the important math concepts and strategies you need to do well on the ACT. In every session, we will tackle a few topics. We will revise them and solve some practice questions. I will also be taking any math questions you might have throughout the session. I plan to adapt the course and the time allocated to each topic based on the needs of the students. Some resources that I will use*: The Ultimate Guide to ACT Math, The Official ACT Prep Guide 2022-2023, 500 ACT Math Questions to Know by Test Day, 3rd Edition. (This list is subject to change as I get to learn what the students need more of.) P.S I have only added the first two sessions, but will be adding all other session during the coming week or two.

I am a senior who values education and enjoys learning and teaching! I am Jordanian, but I attend an international school in Saudi Arabia. My favorite subject at school is biology though chemistry and math are close seconds. I had a GPA of 4.0 in my junior year including an A+ in Math, which included Algebra II and Calculus. I ranked first in my junior year (my school had about 200 junior students). I have taken the ACT test twice and scored a 34 in the first trial and a 35 in the second. I have a super score of 36! I also self-studied AP Biology in 2022 and scored a 5 on the AP Biology test. However, when my school started a 2-year AP Biology program last year, I joined it because of my love for biology (and it was the most challenging biology course being offered at my school). In 2023, I took an AP Chemistry course offered by Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth because my school does not offer AP Chemistry. I received an A in the course and a 5 on the AP test! I have also taken an "Introduction to Epidemiology" course offered by UC San Diego in which I received an A+. I also worked on a research project with the International Research Institute of North Carolina. As to English proficiency, in addition to attending international schools since kindergarten, I have scored 119/120 on the TOEFL test in 2023. I have been tutoring at Schoolhouse for over a year now and have enjoyed tutoring and learned greatly from my experience. I hope to continue sharing my knowledge and helping others during my senior year.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Attending all or almost all of the sessions is highly recommended, especially if you plan to depend on our sessions as the main resource in supplementing your ACT preparation You are, however, free to skip any sessions you don't want to attend or join only on sessions where we discuss the topics that you struggle with the most.

ALGEBRA I The general plan is to discuss algebra 1 topics during this week and the ones following it. As I previously mentioned my plan is flexible and I hope to adapt it to meet my students' needs. For example, we might be able to go through Algebra I faster if they all seem strong in its topics. On the other hand, if I notice that the students need to spend more time on Algebra I, we might continue it in our fifth session or I might add another session between the ones already scheduled. The topics I plan to cover: - solving linear equations - solving inequalities - solving systems of linear equations

ALGEBRA I If there is anything that we couldn't cover from algebra one in the previous session, we will finish that first. We will then discuss root, distributing, common factors, FOILing, and factoring. We will revise those concepts, which many students might be already familiar with, and I will take questions throughout the session. We will also do ACT-style practice questions on each of the topics.

GEOMETRY As I had mentioned in the course deception, this course is meant to be flexible, I plan to modify it according to the needs of the students. Because we had some of the concepts took a little more time than I anticipated, I am dedicating this session to covering circles and polygons (which according to the original description should have been covered in the previous lesson), Let me know if the fact that the course ends a little later poses any problems for you, and I can work with you to find a solution.

Algebra II This is our first session in algebra two. The topics I plan to cover in this session are sequences, exponents, and radicals. Many students might not have had the chance to learn the topics in algebra two before, or they might have had a lot of experience with them. As a result, the topics might take longer than expected to cover. I tried to not put many ideas in one session and in most algebra two topics, the ACT does not require very thorough knowledge. However, if need be, I might keep some topics for the next session or add sessions to cover the topics. Again, the course is relatively flexible and I plan to modify it according to the participants' needs.

Great work! You have reached the end of this series. To wrap things up, we will have a brief review of the different topics and ideas students need to know to do well in the math section of the ACT test along with practice questions about different topics. We will have a Q&A session, and, finally, I will discuss some strategies that can be helpful on test day. These strategies come from both personal experience and what works for some people from what I have heard and/or read.
