10 Prealgebra lessons

He's a great tutor, and is willing to meet me at the location I choose. I'm learning a lot even though I get stuck at times while learning prealgebra. He's very knowledgeable in the area of prealgebra which is what I'm working on for my BA degree. He encourages me when I need it and reminds me of the end result of learning prealgebra. When I receive my BA degree, in my heart I will be thanking my math tutor for helping to get me where I want to be in my career.
