 How the Class Works

The class is taught in a classroom where students can attend in-person or remotely. The teacher will be using an iPad to teach the content, which can be viewed live by students in the classroom on a monitor and via Zoom by students attending remotely. Both in-person and remote students can ask questions and get answers live during class. All lectures are recorded for any students who miss class due to a conflict or want to rewatch lectures as they prepare for test day.

For In-Person Students

All materials will be provided at the first class. Students attending in-person only need to bring a pencil and calculator to the first class.

For Remote Students

All students will be provided all materials before the first class begins.  Students in the San Diego area can pick up their materials before class begins.  Any students who are too far away to pick up their materials will have all materials mailed to them before the class starts.
