"This Summer what else is better than building a strong foundation in Math" |
STEPS announces Summer Programs 2009
TCYonline.com’s online math summer programs offer an opportunity for students to expand their mathematical horizon,
improve problem solving skills, and explore areas in math. A lot of exciting math will be covered, but the emphasis will be on
methods of discovery and communication rather than on the simple accumulation of results. Overall, this program is for future leaders in all
fields that require strong analytical and critical thinking skills.
+ Enrichment Tutoring:
Our enrichment tutoring helps students brush up on their math skills and stay ahead. TCY provides a golden
opportunity for students this summer to brush up on their Mathematical skills and stay ahead. Your child
has infinite capabilities. Our Five Step Approach unleashes your child’s potential, way beyond
your imagination. An Individualized tutoring plan helps the child to learn at his/her own pace.
One-on-one tutoring sessions ensure 100% tutor attention and are followed up with regular progress
tests, which encourage the child’s love for Math.
The program is specially designed to prepare ambitious students to meet new academic challenges of
the next grade and to take them a step ahead of their classmates. Gifted middle schoolers can move
on with their next grade Math curriculum and benefit from our live, one-on-one interactive online tutoring
provided by our expert tutors. The earlier, the better!
Students have the flexibility to complete the tutoring hours anytime within their two months
of summer vacation.
+ Building Fundamentals with Math Edge:
How about turning a B- to an A+ on your Math tests in the fall session after this summer break? Feels
good? We, at TCY are working harder day by day to ensure best grades and success in Mathematics for
our students. An endeavor in this direction is the launch of the Math Edge program for our students this
summer.
Our experts will scientifically evaluate your child’s strengths and areas needing improvement
with a Pre-Assessment test (PAT). Once the areas needing improvement are identified, our experts work
step by step on strengthening these areas, and helping the student build a strong foundation in Math.
Students can also register for specific topics for which they need additional help or guidance.
We also plan to cover the curriculum to be done in the fall session during the summer break, via our
interactive online tutoring sessions, so that the students find the curriculum easy when it is covered
at school.
This provides a competitive edge to students and facilitates retention and recall of concepts. Efficiency
and effectiveness of the program are assured as it is carried out under the keen supervision of our
academic counselors and expert tutors who provide individualized attention.
Our experts will help you in selecting the right tutoring plan, based on your child’s performance
in PAT.
Students have the flexibility to complete the tutoring hours anytime within their two months
of summer vacation.
+ Speed Math:
Speed Math is an excellent opportunity for students who believe in speed and performance at the same
time. We believe in making Math a passion rather than a compulsion. This course includes very
interesting tips and tricks to solve Mathematical problems very quickly. Our program provides one line,
mental and super-fast methods, along with quick cross checking systems.
We offer a new and entirely different approach to the study of
Mathematics you may not have experienced before. The idea of solving problems like 986 X 989, 113401 ÷ 997,
(2x5 + x3 – 3x + 7) ÷ (x3 + 2x – 3) and much more, within a matter of seconds, seems
amazing!!
Get ready to explore a new world of Mathematics. We are extremely hopeful that it would serve as a
great advantage to our students and they would fall in love with Math!!

of summer vacation.
+ STEPS toward SAT:
It is an acknowledged fact that SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) is the most important test for admissions
to sought-after programs in various colleges and universities. If you are dreaming of admission to
the program of your choice in a top-notch institution, a great score in SAT is an essential pre-requisite.
Driven by the needs of our students and guided by exhaustive research, our experienced course planners
have designed a highly useful program for the preparation this summer, to cover all Math topics expected
in SAT.
It would indeed be very helpful for students to have sound knowledge and conceptual clarity to deal
with tricky problems and to pass the test with flying colors. The students can enjoy the comfort of
their homes along with some serious study for a wonderful SAT score.

of summer vacation.
+ Algebra I:
Algebra I and Algebra II programs have been designed after, taking the needs of high school students into consideration.
The programs aim to help the child achieve higher grades. Our experienced and qualified team of tutors
focuses on explaining the concepts with practical real world examples. This facilitates easy learning
and retention. This not only builds a strong foundation in the subject but encourages the child to
become more inquisitive and enhances his / her power of logic.
Individualized one-on-one online live tutoring sessions, delivered with the aid of interactive tools,
make learning effective and enjoyable.
Students who have completed middle school can opt for Algebra I and Algebra II programs this summer
and get a head start in the subject.
Students have the flexibility to complete the program tutoring hours anytime within their
two months of summer vacation.
Algebra I
This course reviews the fundamentals of elementary and intermediate algebra. Topics include solving
and graphing linear and quadratic equations; working with systems of two linear equations in two unknowns;
working with operations on monomial and polynomial expressions etc. Our subject experts will help the
students master these techniques so that they can extend their mathematical reasoning to check algebraic
arguments for validity. The course prepares students for more advanced study in Mathematics, i.e. Pre-calculus
and Calculus, and for programs involving broader Mathematical principles.
Topics included in Algebra I course are:
- Arithmetic properties
- Linear equations and inequalities in one variable
- Multi-step and word problems
- Graph of a linear equation
- Equation and slope of a line
- System of two linear equations in two variables
- Monomials and polynomials
- Quadratic Equations and Quadratic Formula
Algebra - I course is a 15- hour program for $219 only. Based on the Pre-Assessment Test, we will identify the areas of improvement for the student as well as the number of hours required for improvement in each skill set.
The Goal of the program is to help the student understand the basic concepts of Algebra and prepare
for the tough challenges ahead.
+ Algebra II:
Algebra-II complements and expands Algebra I and Geometry. It covers new concepts and techniques required
for more advanced courses in Mathematics and the Sciences that are also useful at the workplaces. In
general terms, the emphasis is on abstract thinking skills, the function concept, and the algebraic
solution of problems in various content areas.
This program is designed to help students understand the more advanced concepts of Algebra and to
demonstrate the skills required in solving real word problems
The topics included in Algebra II course are:
- Equations and inequalities in absolute value
- Systems of linear equations and inequalities (in two or three variables)
- Operations on polynomials
- Real and complex numbers
- Rational expressions
- Quadratic equations
- Maxima, minima, and zeros of the function
- Exponents and logarithms
- Conic section
- Combinations and permutations
- Binomial theorem
- Arithmetic and Geometric Progression
Algebra - II course is a 15 - hour program for $239 only. Based on the Pre-Assessment Test, we will identify the areas of improvement for the student as well as the number of hours required for improvement in each skill set.
