Algebra I Regular Tutorial
This tutorial will assist those students enrolled in
Algebra I Regular in their understanding of algebra. The course will parallel
the 8th grade curricula for Algebra I Regular. This class will assist students
through lecture, question/answer, extra review in order to gain better
understanding of the course material. This class is designed to help boost the
student's confidence in Algebra I skills.
Algebra I Honors Tutorial
This tutorial will assist those
students enrolled in Algebra I Honors in their understanding of algebra. The
course will parallel the 8th grade honors curricula for Algebra 1 Honors. This
class will assist students, by lecture and question/answer, in understanding the
subject so well that their quiz and test scores will be excellent.
Algebra II Regular Tutorial
The
instructor will teach seminar style, often clarifying weekly concepts being
studied in Algebra II/Trigonometry Regular. Question/Answer and some
individualized help are part of this class, as well as math short cuts, problem
solving skills, homework help, and test strategies. During the session, the
instructor will cover the following topics: solving equations, functions,
polynomials, rational expressions, quadratic functions and complex numbers.

Geometry
Regular Tutorial
This class
will discuss the definitions, undefined terms, postulates and theorems of
Euclidean Geometry. We will use the framework of Geometry to reinforce algebra
skills using labeled diagrams and word problems. Students will be introduced to
proofs by studying formal logic and proving the properties of Algebra. This
tutorial will be great support for students taking Geometry concurrently at
school and should contribute to higher quiz scores and grades.

Pre-Calculus
Honors Tutorial (MSJ)
Pre-Calculus is arguably the
most difficult course in mathematics that a
high school student endures, because it is a transition from simple problem
solving (algebra) to more abstract, theoretical mathematics (calculus). The key
to easing this transition is knowledge of shortcuts, good form in working out
problems, and
attention
to the right details. This tutorial is designed to emphasize these fundamental
parts of the Pre-Calculus curriculum. In effect, the student will not only be
able to polish his or her homework more efficiently, but will also significantly
improve performance in both the course, and the Calculus courses to follow.
