This isn't about abstract theory for future mathematicians. This is a practical course focused on the algebra you will actually use in your life and career.

Module 1: The Language of Spreadsheets. We will master writing formulas with cell references (e.g., =SUM(A1:A10)) and variables, which is the algebra of business.

Module 2: The Math of Personal Finance. We will build and analyze algebraic models for creating a budget, calculating loan payments, and understanding compound interest.

Module 3: The Logic of Problem Solving. We will learn to take real-world problems and translate them into a structured, algebraic framework to find a solution.

Module 4: The Power of Statistics. We will learn how to calculate and, more importantly, interpret the essential statistics that you see in the news and at work every day.

Module 5: The Art of the Deal. We will use simple algebraic formulas to analyze percentages, discounts, profit margins, and return on investment.

This course directly and repeatedly answers the question, 'When will I ever use this?'

The focus is on practical application, not theoretical proofs.

The goal of this course is not to prepare you for calculus, but to prepare you for the real world.

This is algebra as a powerful, practical tool for everyday life.
