THE PRE-ALGEBRA TUTOR - LEARNING BY EXAMPLE

Accelerate Student's Algebra Skills!

Program Features:
• Improve students problem-solving skills
• Teaches how to solve problems step-by-step & line-by-line
• Working example problems of increasing difficulty

Pre-Algebra is extremely important for students to master because having a foundation in algebra is essential to doing well in trigonometry, geometry, calculus and beyond. Many times students have difficulty in the more advanced subjects, but it is because they did not have a good foundation in Algebra. This series will build students skills in this critical area, which will ultimately help in all math courses that follow.

This series teaches students the fundamentals of Pre-Algebra through fully worked example problems. Each program is focused on conquering Pre-Algebra with step-by-step solutions to prepare students for Algebra I and beyond.

The Pre-Algebra Tutor is a complete 24 lesson series covering all of the core topics in detail.

Students Will Learn Everything From:

• How to identify & classify the different types of real numbers & how to use the number line
• Find the absolute value of a number & how to add integers together
• How to work with mixed & improper fractions
• How to perform prime factorization
• How to solve single-step equations

What sets this series apart from other teaching tools is that the concepts are taught entirely through step-by-step example problems of increasing difficulty. It works by introducing each new concept in an easy to understand way and by using example problems that are worked out step-by-step and line-by-line to completion. If a student has a problem with coursework or homework, simply find a similar problem fully worked on in the series and review the steps needed to solve the problem.

Students will be able to work problems with ease, improve their problem-solving skills and understand the underlying concepts of Pre-Algebra .

This series is best used in order from Volume 1 through Volume 24

Grade Level: 9 – College & General Interest for Adults / All Audiences.
