How to schedule a tutoring appointment with OSS?
How to study?
Use practice exams as a study guide. Start working on the practice exam earlier. Make sure you understand and remember the steps of every problem. If possible, do the practice exam multiple times.
In class: Engage and take notes. Answer questions. Ask questions.
After class: Review the notes. Watch recordings if needed. When you watch the recording, you can control the speed. Stop every step to think through the math. Make sure you understand every in-class example. If you have questions on some steps of the problem, ask Suky. Visit office hours or if you are not available during my office hours - email me to schedule an appointment. Your exam questions are similar to your in-class examples.
After reviewing the notes and formula, do your homework with a pencil. After you finish, use a red pen to make corrections according to the solution. Please please please be honest with yourself. Do not copy the solution with a pencil. I saw many “perfect homework” (also “perfect practice exam”), but low scores on actual exams. We need to know our mistakes and weaknesses so we can improve!!! Mistakes are our teachers!!! Come to ask me if you don’t understand some solution.
