About the store
I have recently left the classroom for a data analyst job in the private sector. Prior to this transition, I have taught math at a liberal arts college for 8 years. Some of the courses I taught regularly were precalculus, statistics, and business calculus. I have also been tutoring students of all ages for many years. Oddly enough, SAT math is one of my favorite tutoring subjects because I get to solve more interesting problems with the student. It also covers many topics in mathematics.

Limit Worksheet 1 - Left and Right Limit from Graph

Created by
Algomath
This is a quick review worksheet for students in beginning calculus classes. Students are asked to find the left and right limit from a graph to determine the limit as x approaches to certain value. It also asks students to find the y-value(s) at the given x. It is a good way to show students scenarios where limit exists vs does not exist and where a function is continuous or discontinuous as x approaches to certain value. Solution is included.

Teaching style

I am a more traditional instructor. I have tried to be creative by using flipped classroom and smart devices. However, I have found that students still learn best when they are given one-on-one, face-to-face instruction. Instruction needs not be dry. I think good demonstration with concrete examples would engage students learn better. Then they would be more confident in solving problems on their own. I have also allotted a lot more class time on class practice for students to work on problems. I also like to give case study assignments to my students.
