Larry Martinek
Chief Instructional Officer
About: Larry started teaching in 1975 at an inner-city junior high school in Los Angles. He has taught mathematics in public and private schools, gang reduction programs, and gifted youth groups.

Larry has devoted his life to enabling students to understand and love math.
Favorite Math Concept: The Fourier series. In the early 1800s, Jean-Baptiste Joseph Fourier described how waves work in the universe. Its charm is that it allows you to take a complicated wave and decompose it into simple sine waves. This has applications in acoustics, modern electronics, and myriad other areas. Without Fourier, there are no cell phones.
Who do you look up to and why?
Leibniz — a free thinker about math and metaphysics
Einstein — a free thinker about the forces of nature
Jimi Hendrix — a free thinker about musical form, and the fact that he is the most creative guitar player ever. It is arguable who the “best” player ever is, but there’s no serious conversation about the “most creative.”
Ramanujan — the peasant Indian mathematician who tapped into the universe of mathematical thinking deeper than anyone ever has
Santana — has great guitar tone
Leonardo da Vinci — the most creative person to ever live — so far
Mark
Center Director
Mark was born and raised in Memphis but completed his undergraduate coursework at the University of Virginia in Charlottsville. He worked as a financial advisor until he retired to teach math in local middle schools back here in Memphis. He and his wife of 35 years have two children that they are very proud of. He says that what he likes best about working for Mathnasium is the opportunity to help students who may have been intimidated by or uninterested in math change their attitudes towards the subject through the fun environment.
Hobbies: Mark is an actor with Theater of Memphis and a cyclist
Favorite Math Jokes: Why was 6 afraid of 7? Because 7 8 9.
