Advanced Functions

In this group tutoring course we focus on applying the material learnt in an Advanced Functions or pre-calculus mathematics course at the grade 12 level, Ontario, Canada. e.g. In Ontario the material covered here can be found in the grade 12 MHF4U course.  In this course we include the introduction of new functions, such as the absolute value function, piecewise functions, exponential function, logarithm functions; more on polynomial and rational functions and operations involving functions.  This course is by no means a substitute for an actual course. The aim of the course is to help the student work through solved exercises, problems and eventually be able to perform on assignments, quizzes, tests and exams more confidently.

Learning outcomes for each lesson

  • Each lesson will consist of a set of worksheets related to the topics within that lesson. 
  • Each lesson is accompanied by a set of videos with worked examples related to some or all of the topics within that lesson.
  • A weekly group math coaching time will be available to ask questions, work through challenging exercises together and more.
  • Below an outline of the lessons and topics covered in this course.

Advanced Functions or pre calculus course is a requirement for many university programs that require mathematics.  It is also a pre-requisite for grade 12 Calculus and Vectors,  MCV4U, in Ontario.  This course is also a good foundation for some of the more advanced material in preparation for calculus, e.g. exponential functions, logarithms functions, rational functions.  You can find out more about the topics covered in the grade 12 Calculus and Vectors course.
