In the beginning

Hello All!

I need a place to post my class lectures, keys for problems, etc. and am starting here. The files will be mp4 and allow you to watch online, download, etc.

IF you find errors, mistakes in my work, or still do not understand contact me at my school
e-mail--which is on the school's website; or kindly tell me here. Inappropriate responses will be deleted. We are here to learn not degrade.

My goal is to help you learn and to feel comfortable with the content we cover in class!

Thanks!
