Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students are eager to succeed in AP Precalculus but lack access to high-quality preparation materials. These prep books will strengthen their mathematical reasoning, problem-solving skills, and confidence for the AP exam and beyond.

My Students:

I teach hardworking, diverse high school students, many from underprivileged backgrounds. Some are the first in their families to pursue college. Their determination to overcome obstacles and excel in advanced coursework makes them unique.

My Project:

With your support, I aim to provide AP Precalculus prep books that offer:

- Comprehensive content review

- Practice problems with step-by-step solutions

- Test-taking strategies to boost confidence

These books will guide students through complex concepts, strengthen their problem-solving techniques, and prepare them for the AP exam. Many struggle to find quality study materials, but these resources can help them excel in their coursework.

Why This Matters:

AP courses help students earn college credit and prepare for higher education. However, many students face difficulties mastering the rigorous curriculum without proper study tools. These prep books will bridge that gap and set students up for success.

How You Can Help:

Your generosity will give my students the resources they need to thrive academically. Every donation brings them closer to achieving their dreams. Thank you for your invaluable support.
