Skill Improvement

Sometimes the hardest part of a course is the class you took the year before - and forgot. Or perhaps you had mono the week the class did factoring. Perhaps you want to improve your arithmetic and mental math. I am available for "spot work" to clear up problem areas, such as:

  • Mental Math

  • Fractions, Decimals, Percents

  • Equation Solving

  • Lines and Graphs

  • Factoring and FOIL

  • Derivatives


Homeschoolers

Have a Resource/Recourse When Questions Arise! Whatever text you are working with, I am available to explain material and suggest supplements if you want them, or just answer questions you bring. I work during the day as well as afternoons and evenings.


Fun and Personal Enrichment

Come play with math! In addition to skill building, I am available if you want to PLAY with math. We can work through a chapter on fair division problems to learn some ways to divide a cake, or a chapter on voting systems. Spend a couple sessions drawing and exploring fractals, or play with Mobius strips. Try your hand at back-of-the-envelope Fermi problems (About how much ice cream does New England eat in a year?). What are you interested in?


Learning that one CAN do math is almost as important as learning HOW TO do math.
