FROM THE TEACHER

Do you love math? Or would you say you struggle with math? Either way….. it’s always such a benefit to have live, weekly interaction with a teacher. In EVP Pre-algebra, we will go through the material week by week to help each student become more confident with his or her math skills. In this format we will work on each unit together so that you will never feel that you are alone and struggling. Also, there will be firm due dates so that you won’t fall behind!
