Math Equations Set A 02 Simple Brackets and Fractions Mostly for Years/Grade 7, 8 and 9

Equations turn up in so many areas of life as my ex-students keep telling me. This is such an important topics in Maths. So many students struggle with the basic concepts. I use my own special little ways to help students understand and facilitate their success with equations. So many students ‘fight’ showing working out, but it is the only way to a successful future in solving equations and I’ve never seen an exception in over 5,000 students! The goal of showing working out is to establish your proficiency so that you end up comfortable with ‘short-cutting’ on the solving of equations.

After 40 years of enjoyable and rewarding teaching, I still love and continue to teach. It still amazes me how I continue to still think of better ways of teaching mathematical concepts and I also continue to discover methods of explaining things that help students 'better' understand and become more successful at remembering the concepts.

A word of warning from what I have repeatedly seen over the years - most of my videos are placed in a logical or reasonably sequential order and if you watch the first or second video in a playlist and feel comfortable with the concepts, please go to the last video in the playlist to check if you really are okay. Each video in a playlist usually becomes progressively more complex and the 'latter' or 'last' video will often contain common assessment questions where students are known to make errors.

I also often include some revision / consolidation / mixture videos in the playlist which I know are crucial to assist with student success in assessments.

I hope that you find this very helpful and a blessing in your studies.
