Why I love Mathnasium: Mathnasium has techniques to teach mathematics in ways that are simple, understandable, and often done mentally. It's the most straightforward system I've seen for teaching and learning mathematics.
Jerry
Instructor
Jerry arrived in Santa Fe 34 years ago. He has always loved math and coached his five children starting at an early age. Jerry has always been active in sports and exercise. He has been an avid skier for sixty years including helicopter skiing in Canada and US. He has played tennis, racquet ball, handball, and squash for many years starting at Northwestern University and continuing after graduation. Jerry is a highly rated bridge player in Santa Fe. He is also an instructor and available for teaching lessons to improve the quality of the game for persons with less knowledge and loves to teach and play the game of bridge. Jerry loves the outdoors and the wonderful quality of life in Santa Fe.
Fun Fact: I was scared to death the first time that I went to Canada to do helicopter skiing. I was in the second group in the helicopter and looked down at people skiing in the first group, and I could not understand why I was doing this frightful thing. We landed and started skiing and it became easier, and I enjoyed the challenge. I went back to do it many times since then.
Education: I went to Northwestern University and graduated with an accounting degree. I then went to Northwestern University Law School and received my law degree. I retired and moved to Santa Fe with my wife.
Why I love Mathnasium: I was always a numbers person. I know telephone numbers in my head and do not ever have to look them up. I also played number games with my children as they progressed through school and tested them as we rode up ski lifts in Colorado. I enjoy teaching others and watching their progress whether it be skiing, mathematics, riding a bicycle, driving a car, bridge, or any other activity.

working career and in many industries.

Fun Fact: I
have an interesting connection to Santa Fe.
I served aboard USS Santa Fe (SSN 763) as a junior officer. When I reported to the boat Santa Fe had just
arrived in Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. I
completed a successful depot modernization period, sea trials, change of
homeport to Pearl Harbor HI and return to normal operations. I was the Electrical Officer and Navigation
Division Officer while aboard Santa Fe.
Education: I
have a BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Utah and a MA in
Engineering Management from Old Dominion University.
Why I love Mathnasium: Teaching math has been a lifelong dream of
mine. While I have found satisfaction in
all of my professional endeavors, this is where I have
wanted to be!
My oldest children struggled with math and would not let me
assist them. Failure to develop
competency in math impaired their confidence in themselves and contributed to
overall academic stagnation. Many doors
are currently closed to them. This is
not necessary. A solid foundation in
mathematics can open the door to most fields of human endeavor. With proper instruction and effort this is
within the reach of our students in Santa Fe.
The Mathnasium program is exceptional. We can help the students in our community open doors to challenging, engaging, and fulfilling careers that rely on solid quantitative skillsets. I am thrilled to be a part of delivering on this promise! I am also eager to help the children that are still in my home experience the same benefit!
