How the course works:
This course is held live via Zoom and supported by your own virtual classroom. There you'll find a clear weekly structure: once a week you receive an update with everything you need for the next lesson, the whiteboard notes are saved after class so you can review them, and each week includes homework and extra practice matched to the textbook. Everything is organized so you always know what to do and can practice between sessions at your own pace.

Office hours are open for all students in the group courses, and it's a great opportunity to receive additional guidance in a relaxed, informal setting. Feel free to join at any time during these hours. No appointment necessary!
