PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS
This course is recommended for students in Grade 5 to 7.
The key to master Mathematics is reasoning, not memorization. Learning mathematical facts, definitions, and theorems is important, but knowing how and when to apply them to solve various problems is a complex skill to master.
This course is to help students develop a deeper understanding of how to decode word problems, and become more confident in their ability to process information logically and critically. This is not a typical Math class, but rather a skill training class.

FAQS
WHERE DO YOU HOLD YOUR SESSIONS?
We will be using WebEx for our live classes, and Google Classroom for communication.
WILL THERE BE HOMEWORK?
Yes. Students are expected to complete their assignments on time.
WHY IS THIS COURSE FREE?
I love Math, and teaching is my passion. I am not doing this to make a living, plus I believe education for kids should be free (or at least affordable).
WHAT'S THE CATCH?
The catch is that anyone who doesn't follow these 5 rules will be dropped from my class. My goal isn't to have as many students as I can, but rather to offer a great class.
