Aparna taught Katherine 9 months ago
Aparna K. taught Katherine Guerin about asymptotes, including vertical, horizontal, and oblique asymptotes, and how to find them based on the degrees of the polynomials in the numerator and denominator of a rational function. Katherine practiced identifying asymptotes in various equations. They scheduled another lesson for July 11th or 12th.

Clearing up common myths about pre-algebra
Learning Pre-algebra in Canada
Pre-algebra often marks the first time students move from arithmetic into abstract thinking. It’s where numbers meet logic, and patterns start to replace step-by-step rules. But many students and parents carry misconceptions about what pre-algebra is and how it fits into the bigger picture. Here are a few myths that still show up in classrooms, tutoring sessions, and parent-teacher meetings across Canada.
It’s just a review of basic math
Not quite. While pre-algebra does revisit key arithmetic skills, it introduces a major shift: variables, expressions, and equations. Students move from solving problems with one answer to understanding how different parts of a problem relate. In middle school classrooms across provinces like Ontario and Alberta, pre-algebra prepares students for everything that comes later, from linear functions to quadratic graphs.
In cities like Edmonton or Brampton, pre-algebra often appears in Grade 7 or 8. It’s not always labeled clearly, which can lead students to underestimate its importance. But this is the stage where students learn to think in patterns, use logic to solve multi-step problems, and begin recognizing relationships between numbers.
If you’re not great at math, you’ll struggle with pre-algebra
This is a common worry, but it’s not true. Pre-algebra builds on skills that students already have. In fact, students who enjoy puzzles, patterns, or problem-solving in other subjects often do well here. Success in pre-algebra isn’t about speed or memorization. It’s about making connections, learning new ways to approach problems, and having space to practice without pressure.
In school boards across BC, Nova Scotia, and Manitoba, teachers are increasingly focused on helping students understand why math works, not just how to get the answer. Students who start with doubts often find that, with support, pre-algebra becomes one of their stronger subjects.
You won’t need this until high school anyway
This is one of the most misleading myths. Pre-algebra is the foundation for every math course that comes next. Without a strong understanding of variables, number properties, and expressions, students struggle when they reach Grade 9 algebra or advanced functions later in high school.
Tutors across Canada see this pattern often. Students in Grade 10 or 11 come in for help with factoring or graphing, only to realize they never felt confident in pre-algebra. Mastering it early can make every future math course easier, more logical, and less stressful.
