Hi, I’m Gary, and I'll be your instructor for this course in Algebra 1.
I'll be straight with you, I love Math! But I completely get that for most of us it's very challenging, and often frustrating. I'm here to help make it easier for you. I've taught many Algebra 1 students. I understand the sticking points and how to help you develop skills and boost your confidence. I have a BSc Honours degree in Pure Mathematics and have been educated in both the UK and the US. I own and run a private tuition business where I've served many hundreds of Maths students.
