Description

This Course is For You

I created this course for you because I know it's difficult to be on top of your studies all of the time. There are so many reasons why you might need to learn Algebra quickly:

· You missed an important class (or don't attend a class!)

· You didn't understand something in class

· You found a topic particularly challenging

· You need to review for a test

· You need to access relevant practice questions

Whatever your reason this course will help to quickly transform your Algebra skills!

What You'll Take Away From This Course

Algebra is a key skill in all Math courses and is how many Math problems are expressed and solved.

Even in topics which seem unrelated to algebra, for example geometry or trigonometry, we use algebra to represent problems and find solutions. So at the end of this course you’ll not only have excellent algebra but will also have down a core skill for a huge number of other Math techniques.

Each instructional video teaches one core skill and focuses on example questions more than theory. You will then practice what you've learnt in the extensive end of section review exercise. We've included step-by-step solutions so you can check your work as you go. Take this course and you will learn:

· Algebraic expressions

· Algebraic operations such as factorising, expanding brackets, simplifying

· Algebraic fractions

· Equations, inequations and systems of equations

· Exponents and radicals

Take this course and you will be using Algebra in a day!

Who this course is for:

Students who need to learn algebra quickly
Students reviewing key algebra techniques for a test or assignment
Students looking for relevant practice questions with full step-by-step solutions
