Welcome to Math Learning Center (MLC)

In order to adapt to the varied and diverse needs of Cerritos College students, the Math Learning Center (MLC) offers semi-independent courses in six different levels of mathematics: basic math, prealgebra, elementary algebra, intermediate algebra, college algebra, and trigonometry. The format of these courses offers maximum flexibility for students with time constraints, or students who wish to progress more rapidly than normal lecture classes.

Hours of operation
Monday through Thursday 8:30 a.m. - 9:00 p.m.
Friday 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.

Mathematics classes in LC-111 are SEMI-INDEPENDENT classes. These classes cover the same content as other Mathematics courses, but use an entirely different method of instruction. Instead of attending regular lectures, students read and learn the material on their own. Tutorial assistance is provided Monday through Thursday 8:30 a.m. - 9:00 p.m. and Friday 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. Students take exams according to a schedule given out the first day of class at a mandatory orientation. These classes are recommended ONLY for students with a strong background in Mathematics who are independent learners. For students who experience Math anxiety or whose background in Mathematics is not strong, we recommend enrolling in a traditional lecture class.
