If you are looking to sharpen your basic math skills or you’re considering beginning your higher education and need a math refresher, ‘Applied Math for Adults,’ can help.
This free, six-week, non credit course will be offered beginning July 26 at Averill Park High School. Classes will run from 6 to 9 p.m. Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
The course will provide a ‘real world’ problem solving approach to basic math concepts like algebra, fractions and percentages. Students will work to gain more confidence in using math to help them with a variety of tasks. The course can also provide some confidence to those who are considering entering a technical field and need some help with their math skills.
