Math Instruction
The SSS Math Instructor and tutors provide one-to-one tutorials for SSS students in the following courses: Math 100, 102, 103, 111, 112, 120, 124, 125 and QSci 291/292.
Workshops will be offered to SSS students when there is a minimum of five students interested.
It is recommended that SSS students taking any of these courses meet with the instructor and tutors at the beginning of the quarter. We have found that students learn better if they study their material every day. Students need to study at least 15 hours per week for Math 103, 111, 112, 120, 124, and 125 in order to do well.
