The Stratford Library’s Teen Services Department in collaboration with the Stratford School system currently offers after-school-hours assistance for high school students.
“HomeworkHelp@SLA” offers one-on-one help for students by Stratford high school teachers at the Library through May 2011. It is free and open to the public.
The sessions will focus on math and science but all subjects can be addressed depending on student need. Teachers will be on site at the library Thursdays from 6-8 pm and Saturdays and Sundays, 2-4 pm. All sessions will be held in the Library’s lower-level Board Room. No appointments are necessary, drop-ins are welcome.
For further information about “HomeworkHelp@SLA”, call the Library’s Teen Services Department at 203.385.4167.
The Library has a huge collection of books and DVDs for the student-who-needs-a-little-extra-help as well. Come in and talk to us about what's confusing you.
The Standard Deviants - Algebra Adventure. A youthful cast of performers, who believe no joke, skit, or costume is too corny as long as it helps a student remember something important, throw themselves into "The Adventurous World of College Algebra" by beginning with a spoof of "Raiders of the Lost Ark." Despite the lighthearted approach, this is a serious algebra review course, compiled under the direction of academic advisers.
Physics for the Utterly Confused is for students first or second semester non-calculus based physics courses, and is equally useful to anyone taking their first physics course. Problems are thoroughly explained, show all the math steps and explain all the concepts.
Chemistry Demystified. Chemistry will never be easy, but at least the mystery can be taken out of the equation. (Pun totally intended).
