CEGEP · Linear Algebra · NYC
Linear algebra, finally visual.
Matrices, determinants, vectors, lines and planes in space: we link every calculation to a clear picture so the course stops being a list of recipes.

Understanding instead of applying
Linear algebra is often the first course where math becomes truly abstract. The good news: almost everything becomes intuitive once you see it geometrically. We alternate between rigorous calculation and drawing, so you know what to do and why.
What we cover
What we work on together
Matrices
Operations, inverses, properties and applications.
Determinants
Computation, properties and Cramer's rule.
Vectors
Linear combinations, dot product and cross product.
Lines and planes
Equations, relative positions, distances and angles in space.
Vector spaces
Linear independence, bases and dimension, depending on your course.

Other subjects
Is NYC the same at every CEGEP?
The core content is similar, but the order and emphasis vary. We follow your course outline.
I'm good at calculus but lost with vectors. Is that common?
Very. 3D geometry means visualizing in space. We use drawings and concrete examples.
Can you help at university too?
Yes for a first university linear algebra course, depending on the content. Send us the course outline and we'll confirm.
How much is a session?
$55 an hour, with no registration fee. Group sessions cost less per student.
