MATH CAN BE FUN!
Hi! My name is Ruth Cooper
Homeschool graduate. MBA. M.Ed. Ph.D. student. Educational Therapist. CrossFit trainer. Bookkeeper. Baker. Saxon Math "survivor." It's okay... you can laugh.

Teaching algebra can cause you to rethink your life...
I am not a math genius. Math was hard work - I even had to repeat pre-algebra at one point! So why should you trust me with your student's math journey? Because that process of repeating pre-algebra unlocked the world of math and transformed my outlook on math.
Once I got those secrets, I couldn't keep them to myself. To this day, I continue to use those 20+ years of tutoring and teaching experience as a guide for hundreds of students of all ages: algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and beyond.
​
I can't not teach and MathMedics+ is a natural extension of who I am - no matter what your situation is, MathMedics+ takes the emergency out of math through high-quality instruction offered via weekly live, self paced, or subscription format classes.

Math. Can. Be. Fun.
OVERVIEW OF COURSES
Math has problems. We have solutions.
runs for 30 weeks
This option provides a live, 90-minute class each week for 30 weeks (two breaks each semester and a longer winter break are provided). Students will have direct access to an instructor via live chat during class and during a virtual office hour each week, as well as the ability to communicate with each other. Questions are encouraged in class and tests are returned with detailed feedback. Live attendance is NOT required and every live class is recorded and posted for those who could not attend live.
available for 1 year
This option is best for students who need more time to complete a year of math... or who would like to complete a year of math in less time. A syllabus along with suggested homework and testing schedules are provided as well as access to the entire class content - including tests, and instructional videos for each lesson. A teacher is available for questions via email and a final grade and certificate of completion is awarded upon finishing each course. Live, weekly virtual office hours or one-on-one tutoring are available as add-ons.
