Integrated Math 2 is the math class offered to 10th graders in districts that use an "integrated" math curriculum, meaning that each year of secondary instruction encompasses elements of algebra, geometry, and trigonometry instead of dedicating a full school year to each. The advantage of this is that the difficulty scales with age, as sophomores probably should have a more challenging curriculum than freshmen. The disadvantage is that students often need to remember material that they last looked at a year ago in order to follow their teacher. If you or your child is struggling in math class, Varsity Tutors can refer you to an experienced Integrated Math II tutor who can help.
Here are some of the concepts that you may review during Integrated Mathematics 2 tutoring sessions:
- Complex and Irrational Numbers
- Quadratic Polynomials and Expressions
- Exponential Equations
- Conditional Probability
- Right Triangle Trigonometry
- The Geometry of Circles
- Parabolas in the Coordinate Plane
- Problem-Solving and Critical Thinking Skills
Nothing feels worse than staring at a whiteboard filled with numbers and having no idea what any of it means. Thankfully, Integrated Mathematics II tutoring sessions allow students to work at their own pace. If you're fine with quadratic expressions but struggle with problems concerning the geometry of a circle, your study sessions can concentrate on the latter for maximum efficiency. If you run out of textbook problems, your tutor can provide more to give you all of the practice you need. Finally, any questions you have can be answered in a timely manner to make sure that you get the help you need before you start to feel overwhelmed.
