This session is for grade 12 pre-calculus.

Classes haven't started yet at the time I created this session, however I've found that most teachers start with function transformations. I'll go over what each transformation means in the following:

y = A f[ B(x - C)] + D

I'll demonstrate using example functions, what order the transformation should be done in, and how to draw the graph of the transformed function from a "base" function.

It's a lot to cover in just half an hour, but I think it's doable, but I won't have time to explore many examples. As long as I don't have anyone scheduled after, I don't mind going a little longer than half an hour to go over any specific questions you may have.

Transformations of functions is foundational to grade 12 maht, and will come up again in most of the future chapters of the course. So don't decide that this will be the chapter you "just don't get" as you won't "get" much of the rest of the course! Don't worry, I'll go over it again (and again) as it appears throughout the course, so even if it doesn't completely sink in yet, you'll get more chances to understand.

I've included a file below of graph paper. Although not always necessary for doing transformations, if you are required to do graphing, using graph paper is best for accurate graphs.

High School
Subjects: Math
I can help with any high school math, from grade 8 to 12. I cover pre-calculus and foundations. I've also helped mature students with math upgrades for career changes.
Location: Nanaimo - Ladysmith, BC
I'm located in Cedar, equidistant from both Ladysmith and downtown Nanaimo. I can tutor either in-person in the dedicated tutoring room in my home, or on-line using Zoom.
I have a degree in Electrical Engineering and many years experience tutoring students in math. I create notes of every session, and e-mail a PDF to students at the end of each session. I take only a limited number of students to keep my schedule flexible to accommodate extracurricular activities and sports. Note I reply to inquiries quickly, if you don't hear from me, check your spam folder, or include a phone number so I can follow up with a call.
