Course Description
Algebra 1A is designed for those students, young or old, who need a thorough course in Algebra 1 or introductory algebra. You may ask questions by email on all lessons or problems in the class. I personally answer all email daily. Few online classes offer this service.
This online course is equivalent to 1 semester of high school Algebra 1 or 1/2 of Introductory Algebra in college. There is a sequel to this class, Algebra 1B. The same book is used; no need to buy another. These two courses will prepare you well for your first college course. This class is very comprehensive; there are 30 lessons and 6 tests in Algebra 1A.

I am a state certified teacher with 30+ years of experience and I have a Master's degree in Mathematics from the University of Alabama in Birmingham. I also have 18 semester hours of post-graduate work.
Math is a process that requires logic and problem solving abilities. Rules of math build upon each other. Understanding or memorizing rules is not sufficient. You must be able to use them well to successfully move ahead. Some people learn quickly some do not, but all need practice. For this reason I have chosen a textbook (it has been in publication for over 15 years) that is excellent for several reasons. It contains hundreds of examples and thousands of problems to work. For all examples, the answers and the steps to work the problem are given . The answers to all odd problems are also given. At the end of each chapter is a review and a test. The answers to these are also given. The organization and layout of the book is very good.
The latest edition of this book is used in several universities. I use the 3rd or 5th edition which can still be found on the internet at a used book price. Sometimes the books are slightly used sometimes they are almost new with varied prices between $20 to $35 that is including shipping.
Most colleges offer this class, but do not give college credit for it. Why pay an enormous price for a class for which you can not receive credit? The knowledge of Algebra 1 is what you need so that you may then enter into a college credit algebra class. This class is very affordable and will be well worth your money. It is much cheaper than private tutoring or a college class.
This course offers 4.00 CEUs upon successful completion. You may take this
online course with or without CEU documentation. An online and hard-copy Certificate of Course Completion displaying your coursework and

Official awards include a serial number that verifies the authenticity of the award you earned for a lifetime (great for employers
to verify your achievement).
