A Mastery-Based Approach to Learning Math
At the MLC, you will find a mastery-based approach to learning math under the guidance of an instructor and with tutorial support. You will learn by reading, watching video lectures, and completing practice problems.
To be successful, you will need to be self-directed, self-motivated, and committed to staying ahead of testing deadlines.
- Complete a transfer-level math course using a mastery-based approach.
- Work quickly on easier material so that you can spend more time on what you need to learn.
- Receive regular help and feedback from your instructor.
- Get help from tutors any time we are open.
- Work at your own pace: Take the whole semester to complete your course or work quickly and complete your course early.
The MLC offers the following courses:
- Math 300: Introduction to Mathematical Ideas (enrollment in MathS 95 Support might be required)
- Math 333: Introduction to College Algebra (enrollment in MathS 33 Support might also be required)
Students not meeting the Intermediate Algebra perquisite can enroll in Math 300 or Math 333 if also enrolled in the corequisite support course.
