One of the challenges of math is that many of us don't use it every day, so it's hard to remember what we've been taught. This course will cover math that we use when we are shopping, doing projects around the house, balancing our checkbooks, or preparing meals. We will use a hands-on approach to learning math concepts so you can confidently use it in your daily life. Ongoing enrollment (start anytime).
