How To Tackle Geometry Problem Effectively And Score An A

How To Tackle Geometry Problem Effectively And Score An A Geometry is the study of shapes and angles and can be challenging for many students. Many concepts are completely new and this may cause concern about the subject. There are lots of posts/theorems, definitions and symbols to learn before geometry begins. Through a combination of good study habits and some study points, you will get success in learning geometry. Geometry in itself is problematic for most students and when it comes to topics like geometry. They require a lot of imagination and understanding, students flounder and flail at problem-solving. Having a firm grasp of underlying concepts is a must. When it comes to geometry and seeking geometry homework help is essential whenever a student gets stuck solving a problem. We have collated a few tips and techniques from online math tutors who are experts in geometry. They will help students gain mastery over the subject and to score straight ‘A’s in it; read on. Get proper tools for solving geometry problems! Having a clear set of tools is very helpful when it come to solving geometry problems. The see-through and clear kinds are the best ones to have and online geometry tutors swear by them. A clear protractor, ruler and a good compass along with a pencil and eraser are the first things you need in your geometry class. Draw wherever necessary For any wordy problem, draw whatever is given in the problem. This will help you visualize better. For instance, if you have a problem that involves two circular tracks, one within the other or simply a circular track and you need to measure some area. The best way to solve this is by drawing the diagram proportionately and marking whatever details have been presented in the problem. It will give you a clear picture and help you solve the problem quickly. Read the question and go through it more than once to understand the geometry in it entirety The question could be wordy and may have a lot of clues and hints. Reading it thoroughly and understanding what it is all about completely is essential to solve it. Also, having a plan of action and solving it in your head is a very good way to go about problem-solving. Map geometry to the real world and try to understand its applications More often than not it is this correlation with the real world that is missing. This is why students fail to understand concepts. If you consider the volume of say a cylinder, envision a real-life object that is similar to a cylinder and then understand why calculating a volume is helpful. Also, while visualizing the object, it is easier to understand its dimensions and thus calculate easily. Teachers should come up with assignments that help students map geometry to the real world. Even if a student requires geometry assignment help, he/she can take help from online tutors or their class teachers and get them done. This sort of an exercise will help them relate to the subject better. Be sure to use these tips while solving math  problems next time!

AQPC Mention dHonneur

AQPC Mention dHonneur Great news! You may remember that I won the TESL Innovation Award in June 2017 and the Sesquicentennial Pin for Leadership in Education in November 2017, but now Ahuntsic College, my college, has bestowed on me the teacher of the year award for 2019. It is called the AQPC Mention dHonneur. See my other awards here. Ahuntsic College has about 600 teachers, so winning this award is a tremendous honour for me. I will receive the award at the AQPC Congress in Rimouski on June 6, 2019. A screenshot of the announcement on the college website (requires login) is below. Below that, I have attempted to translate the announcement into English. Below that is the original message in French.
