My goal here is to provide digital learning on specific areas of math that are proven challenging for students to learn and understand, and also to provide students and teachers with opportunities that foster math practice and learning in an engaging and fun way.
Enjoy!

FRACTIONS
This video is designed to explain an easy and simple way to solve an addition/subtraction fraction problem with different denominators. I recommend this video to students as well as teachers. Students may benefit from learning a trick to solve such problems and teachers may benefit from learning a different approach to teaching this kind of math to students.

This tutorial is about understanding and teaching principles of Adding mixed numbers. You are guided through the process step by step.
|
|
Subtracting mixed numbers may be tricky for students. This video will provide students with a technique to understanding the process of subtracting mixed numbers.
|
|
Sometimes when we subtract mixed numbers we have to borrow and this can be tricky for learners and challenging for teachers to teach. This tutorial will help students understand how to properly borrow when subtracting mixed numbers and will help educators better teach the process.

WORD PROBLEMS
This tutorial will help students understand how to use and understand fractions to solve a word problem. Step by step instructions are given to solve the problem. Viewing this, students may better understand how to manipulate fractions in a more meaningful way!
|
|
This tutorial gives the meaning for what percent is. Then, each word in the problem is rewritten using its mathematical meaning. This is a great way to help students see how the words are actually the information needed to set up a mathematical problem to find a solution.
|
|
Here, Dr. Shah gives an awesome tutorial of how to turn words into math. Many students may struggle to relate words to mathematics. I, in fact, was one of those students in grade school. This video may help students close the gap between words and math.

PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM
This tutorial will help students understand how to find Pythagorean triples. Pythagorean triples can be helpful in solving Pythagorean theorem word problems.
|
|
In this tutorial students will see how Pythagorean triples may help them to solve a Pythagorean theorem word problem. Students may also be able to apply what they learn here to other problems.
|
|
This tutorial is awesome for explaining the sides of a triangle and how to find the measurement of each side. It also explains how to get the Pythagorean equation! Then, it goes on to show you how to use the Pythagorean equation to solve a problem.
|
|
DERIVATIVES
Sometimes derivatives that involve fractions may be tricky and difficult to understand. This tutorial shows you how to manipulate an equation using algebraic rules.
|
|
Here you will learn how the chain rule may be used to eliminate time and get results more quickly and efficiently. You will also learn how to apply the chain rule to an equation and when it is necessary to use it.
|
|
TRIGONOMETRY
Trigonometry is broken down into detail for viewers to understand in 3D animation! The unit circle and all of its components are defined in a meaningful way. This tutorial will give you a better understanding of why we use trigonometry and its importance using real world applications.
|
|
This tutorial shows you how to use the basic trig functions and how to find the values of them and their partners. Also, a memory trick is given that will help you remember what Sine, Cosine, and Tangent means!
