This is the page for the coordinated course MATH-1553 Introduction to Linear Algebra Studio Sections E01 at Georgia Tech. Here you can find some resources that may help you review.
My office hours in Summer 2025 are 3-5 pm every Tuesday in the Math Lab, located in Clough 280. If this time doesn’t work for you, you can still go to the Math Lab to get help with any questions about MATH-1553. You can find the detailed schedule for the Math Lab here.
However, you can always schedule a meeting with me in person or online. My email address is rhuang346@gatech.edu. You can view my schedule at the ‘My Schedule’ tab above.
