Meet the Team at Mathnasium of North Potomac

Shrestha M

Hello! My name is Shrestha (sure-es-ta) and I am a third year undergraduate student at the University of Maryland, College Park majoring in neuroscience. I have been helping students improve their math skills since 2021 and learn to love math as much as I do. I personally was a student at Mathnasium when I was in elementary and middle school and excelled in math myself as a result. I strive to help students engage in math with the same confidence I gained from going to Mathnasium. Favorite number: 11 because it's odd and I love a good mystery. Math fact: a typical cloud weighs about a million tonnes.

Brian M

Hello, my name is Brian Meyer. I am a lead instructor at the Annapolis and North Potomac Mathnasium locations. I have been with Mathnasium since May of 2016. I am also a middle school math teacher in Montgomery County. I have been teaching since 2005. My wife, Kate and I have been married since 2023 and have a beautiful daughter named Grace who was born in 2014. I have a collection of sports memorabilia that includes bobbleheads, autographed mini-helmets, and sports cards.

George P

Hi, my name is George and I am currently in my first year of trade school at Lincoln Tech where I am studying to get my electrician certification. My hobbies include spending time with friends and family, spending time outside, and anything to do with cars. My favorite number is 8 because it’s my sister’s lucky number that she wears for all her games as well as my favorite quarter back (Lamar Jackson). Math fact: 7 is one of the most unique numbers. It is the only single number that can not be divisible by a number and be kept in the 1-10 number range.

Jaya S

I am currently a senior at Wootton High School and am interested in studying biomedical or aerospace engineering. In my free time I love to read, hang out with friends & family, and play with my dog. My favorite number is 6 because it was my jersey number on my soccer team. Math joke: What did the triangle say to the circle? You're pointless! Fun fact: The number 2 is the smallest prime number and only even prime number!

Matt Feldman

My name is Matt Feldman and I am the Center Director of Mathnasium of North Potomac.  I am thrilled to be working with the students and families of the North Potomac community. My passion for mathematics goes back to my 4th grade teacher, Mr. Jennings. He instilled within me, at an early age, that math and fun can go hand in hand. His ability to demonstrate the concepts while allowing his students to enjoy the process has never left my mind. I have eighteen years of classroom teaching experience in Geometry, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 and Algebra 2. I have also been a basketball coach at various levels for over a quarter century. I have many creative passions that include: photography, gardening and all of our local sports teams. I am a third generation Washingtonian with a long history of love for all things Washington, D.C.

As your Center Director, I will do my best to combine mathematics, fun and student growth.
