Description Algebra 1 is one of the most intimidating subjects for math students. The reason is that prior to this point students have been dealing with numbers such as "3" and "43" and now suddenly in Pre-Algebra And Algebra 1 they begin to deal with variables such as "x" and "y". This concept at first can seem a bit daunting with all of those letters running around!
The Math Video Tutor is named "Fractions Thru Algebra" because it starts off with the very basics - fractions - and from there slowly progresses into Pre-Algebra and Algebra 1. A great deal of time is spent on fractions and the concept of a negative number before the student is presented with Algebraic Expressions, which is where most Algebra 1 Textbooks begin. In this way a solid foundation is laid upon which Algebra 1 can be conquered.
The core philosophy of this 10 hour DVD course is that "Algebra Is Easy". The way that you make it easy for a student is to start off with the basics and gradually move on to the tougher material. In this way the student builds confidence in his or her skills and confidence is the key to success in Algebra.
The Math Video Tutor - Fractions Thru Algebra is a 10 hour course that will fully help a student master all of the core topics in Pre-Algebra and Algebra 1. After mastering the concepts in this DVD series the student will be ready and able to move and tackle Algebra 2, Trigonometry, and beyond.
How are the MathTutorDVD.com line of DVDs different from others? The answer is simple. Most math instruction involves a lengthy discussion of the abstract theory behind the Math before instructing the student in how to solve problems. While there are some merits to this style, in the vast majority of the cases the student quickly gets bored and frustrated by the time he or she starts to solve the problems. This DVD, in contrast, teaches all of the concepts by working fully narrated problems step-by-step, which is a much more engaging way to learn.
Exceptional value and affordability. MathTutorDVD.com believes in providing value for our customers. This is a 10 Hour DVD course. We could have easily split this content into many DVD courses costing the same price but instead chose to keep the cost down so that this content is affordable to all.
What is our teaching style like? All topics on this DVD are taught by working example problems. There are no traditional lectures of background material that won't help you solve problems and improve your skills. We believe in teaching-by-doing and that is what you will receive by watching this DVD. Solving Equations is explained, for example, by working many problems in step-by-step detail. We begin with the easier problems and work our way up to the harder problems. The student immediately gains confidence, does not get bored, and quickly feels like he or she can conquer the material. This method is extremely powerful and has proven itself time and again. Perhaps most importantly, problem solving skills are honed early on that will help with homework and taking exams even after watching the very first lesson.
