In this course ‘Introduction to Fractions’, students will be able to answer the following questions: What are fractions? What do fractions look like in the real world? How do we write fractions? What are the different parts of a fraction? And finally, how to compare and order fractions?
Key Takeaways:
- recognise, find and write fractions of a discrete set of objects: unit fractions and non-unit fractions with small denominators

- recognise and be able to name parts of a fraction
- recognise and show, using diagrams, equivalent fractions with small denominators

About the instructors
I am passionate about education and having been taught both in the UK and at international schools, I have had the advantage of learning multiple syllabuses both in academic schooling and through numerous competitions around the world. Using these experiences, I have helped my peers, GCSE students and younger students, by installing a love for learning which I believe helps students achieve their education goals. My experience of teaching includes:
1) Mathematics at both International Schools and Kumon
2) English to students in India
3) Computer Science at students studying in an International School
4) Piano to budding musicians
5) Elementary Chinese to younger students
