Sylvan Learning Center of Tualatin is proud to offer a new online math tutoring service to students in middle and high school. The Sylvan Math Prep website gives kids and parents access to math tutoring every day from any computer with Internet access. Students can access Sylvan Math Prep online (with no special installation of software required) to catch up, keep up, or get ahead of math coursework.
Sylvan Math Prep was created by math teachers who also tutored extensively. Middle school and high school level mathematics are covered, including Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra 2 material. It is not only an excellent tool for learning, reviewing and mastering math skills but also a great way to prepare for the SAT and ACT exams. The program contains 2,000 videos that are organized into 750 lessons, each correlated to the specific Sylvan tutoring lesson or math text used in school classes! If a text is not on our list, students can simply use a keyword search to find related lessons.
With Sylvan Math Prep, students are in control of their learning experience. They can review a video or practice problems numerous times in order to master math concepts. Parents are empowered to help their child(ren) to better understand and apply math concepts using the site from home.
Each lesson includes four step-by-step video demonstrations of a math concept, practice problems (with the ability to check answers, receive hints, view detailed work, and hear audio to work them out), a deep thought challenge question, and self-test (that can be taken several times, each with a different set of questions). Extra problems and notes are that summarize main points of the lesson are printable.
Sylvan Math Prep is available online for $39.50 per month. We believe its greatest value is when students combine the convenience of at home use with additional support from our math experts in-center. Please call us at 503 692-5080 for more information so that we can create the best solution for your student.
