	Trigonometry

A Plus Tutorial helps students succeed in "Trigonometry" every day. Some trigonometry students are in high school and others are in college. If this is the level of math your student is in and you decide to have our tutors help your student, here is what you can expect:

	Our tutors help students complete homework assignments. Most teachers count individual homework grades toward a student's final grade. If we can ensure homework is complete and correct, we can immediately begin to impact your student's grade in class. As we help students with homework, we create a list of previously learned topics that weren't actually retained. We do this in stead of giving students a diagnostic test.
	Once we have a list of areas your student needs extra help with, we use any extra time re-teaching those deficient skills. This old material is what is holding your student back. So the re-teaching of this material receives a very high priority. Our tutors work with your student several times on the same deficient skill to be sure it has been learned adequately.
	A Plus Tutorial believes repetition is the key to success. Your student needs to continually practice trigonometry. One of the best things your student can do is understand the "unit circle". It is the key to many things in Trigonometry.
	Once your student gets back on track, our tutors will show them study skills they can benefit from. From how to study for a test to how to study for tomorrow's lesson in class. There are many study skills that work for algebra. All your student needs is someone to show them what they are.

A Plus Tutorial helps students make sense of sin, cos, and tan. Students are often completely thrown off track by these three little words. By this point in math students are expected to have a firm grasp of angles and their measures, 45-45-90 triangles, and 30-60-90 triangles. Also, algebra is clearly back to stay. The combination of basic math, algebra, and triangles from geometry is overwhelming for many students. Bringing all this past knowledge together may not be easy but it is an invaluable life skill. A Plus Tutorial can give your student the tools to succeed.

A Plus Tutorial believes success is within every student. Your student doesn't have to hate math. Your student doesn't have to think they aren't good at math. In fact, A Plus Tutorial believes that a positive math experience can change all that. It is always our goal to make your child smile. If that sounds strange, ask yourself this question. Are you more likely to learn something when you are feeling positive or negative? We give your student a reason to smile at A Plus Tutorial because we know that's when they learn best.

If your child is struggling to learn trigonometry, please get them help now. Your decision to get help, now versus later, could mean the difference between success and that dreaded expression "I hate math." Your student doesn't have to get help from A Plus Tutorial buy they have to get help. This is one decision you don't want to put off.

Pricing

Each of the "Trigonometry" lessons at A Plus Tutorial lasts 60 minutes and costs $35.00.

We can see your student in our office once a week, twice a week, or three times a week. It all depends on your child's needs. There are no long term contracts to sign, your obligation to A Plus Tutorial is based on a week to week commitment.

We want what is best for your child. And sometimes that means a different tutor or no tutor at all. When students come back week after week it is because they (and their parents) are benefiting from the time spent at A Plus Tutorial - not because there is a contractual agreement. Call A Plus Tutorial today!

"Who's YOUR Math Tutor ??"

Sin

Pronounced like "sign", is a trigonometric function. One way to define sin is the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a triangle to the length of the hypotenuse of the same triangle.

sin a = opp / hyp

Cos

Pronounced like "co-sign", is a trig function. One way to define cos is the ratio of the length of the adjacent side of a triangle to the length of the hypotenuse of the same triangle.
cos a = adj / hyp

Tan

Short for tangent, this is also a trig function. One way to define tan is the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a triangle to the length of the adjacent side of the same triangle.
tan a = opp / adj
