About

Is prealgebra too easy for you? Are you looking for something more advanced? This course is organized so that every topic in prealgebra is covered through a more  enriched and efficient way. Through this series, we will introduce math concepts that follow the AoPS (Art of Problem Solving) textbook. Here is a link to the AoPs description for its pre-algebra content in the textbook:https://artofproblemsolving.com/school/course/prealgebra1. 

 From simple warm-up questions to advanced problems for mathematical contests, we will go through everything. No prior knowledge is needed, and we welcome anybody to join us!

About the Tutor

Hi! I'm a student (currently learning geometry) who enjoys math and problem solving outside of school. Through schoolhouse.world, I hope I can pass on some prealgebra knowledge I learned.
