Why is it Important to Study Algebra?

Algebra is the study of mathematical symbols and the rules for manipulating those symbols. During this foundational math course, NYC students will form the basis for advanced studies in many fields, including mathematics, science, engineering, medicine, and economics. Typically broken up into Algebra I and Algebra II, students will explore polynomial expressions, graphing linear equations, logarithmic functions, systems of inequalities, quadratic equations, rational exponents, and radical expression. Whether New York University, Columbia University, or the local Hunter College, all undergraduate programs require high school students to pass an Algebra class.

Given the hierarchical nature of mathematics, Algebra is a gateway class to advanced mathematical courses including Geometry, Trigonometry, and Calculus. Students wishing to further their mathematical competency past introductory-level Algebra classes typically have a greater of developing essential problem-solving and critical-thinking skills they can apply to other academic subjects. Strengthening these transferrable skills can help high school students succeed in college, graduate school, and jobs even if they do not pursue math- or science-oriented careers.

Why Do NYC Students Struggle to Learn Algebra?

Algebra is a foundational class. Without a solid understanding of basic algebraic concepts, NYC students cannot build a deeper understanding of more complex topics. While many of Algebra’s basic topics are generally tied together, they may feel disjointed for some high school students. From exploring y-intercepts, graphing functions, or multiplying matrices, the long list of Algebra topics may confuse any NYC high school students. This confusion may stem from a lack of mathematical fluency, which allows learners to accurately apply procedures and formulas problems.

Stress, learning style, and math teachers’ personalities can also impact a student’s progress. During the first session, CATES Algebra tutors will identify your student’s strengths and underlying challenges. This methodology includes reviewing your student’s school Algebra syllabus and textbook, re-teaching key concepts, and preemptively preparing them to stay ahead of the learning curve. Furthermore, our online tutors record and track your students’ progress as they master multi-step equations and cube-root equations. Throughout the remote or in-person one on one tutoring, our tutors may revisit and restructure the curriculum to ensure your Algebra student receives maximum value from each session.
