Marissa A.

49 algebra lessons

In order to transfer, I must pass college algebra, so in August I took the college math assessment placement test and was very depressed when I placed into pre-algebra. My placement in pre-algebra meant I had to take four math courses to fulfill the math course requirement. I would have needed to take pre-algebra, then elementary algebra, then intermediate algebra, and finally college algebra to fulfill the math requirement.
JOSE V.

3 algebra lessons

The teacher explained the algebra lesson in class and he did not fully understand the algebra concepts. He was confused and frustrated with the algebra problems. When Lida stared explaining the Algebra problems and resolved over twenty five algebra problems he started understating the algebra concept. He was improved remarkably over the 60 minutes lesson. We have also noticed that he started approaching his Algebra homework more confidently.
Erin H.

4 algebra lessons

I have been refreshing by taking Coursera courses to prep for my College Algebra course this summer. It has been going greatly with his tutoring and I feel confident that I will succeed in College Algebra. He never makes me feel less-than for not knowing an important concept, which is an essential trait for any productive learning environment. He is very knowledgeable and knows the ins and outs of Algebra. I highly recommend him for all your Algebra needs!
