Host: Mr. Salian has 21 years of experience in teaching Maths, with 5 years in the online teaching space. As well as teaching KS3 and KS4 Maths he has taught students for some of the toughest competitive exams around the world, including GRE, GMAT, SAT, Maths Olympiad and UKMT. His unique style of teaching includes relating the concepts to real world in order to understand difficult concepts in a practical and easy manner. With Mr Salian's classes you can follow his philosophy 'to overcome the fear of maths is the first step towards mastering the subject.' So come join us and fall in love with Maths!Prime factor decomposition is when you write a number as a product of prime factors. In this class, students will gain a better understanding of the prime factor decomposition of any number and how to write it in index notation. Students will also learn how to use prime factor decomposition to calculate HCF and LCM of two numbers. This class is aimed at students in Years 7 - 9 but can be a tricky topic so can be used a revision by any student!
