Camille
Instructor
I've taken Algebra 1-2, Geometry, Trigonometry, and am starting Pre-Calculus in high school. I've participated in many high school debates, performed several instrumental solos or in groups, participated in Sun Valley Music Festival and other music camps for several years, and have given many public speeches at school. I like to make animations, do graphic design, compose music and play instruments (violin, piano, and viola).
Fun Fact: When I was 9 years old, I chipped my front tooth biting the refrigerator handle, exaggerating to my mom how hungery I was that I could eat the fridge. (I just wanted chicken nuggets).
Favorite Number, Why?: 8, since its symmetrical both vertically and horizontally, and it looks like a standing infinity sign. It's just the best number.
Education: I go to a Christian homeschool group called Classical Conversations, and I am currently a junior in high school.
Why I love Mathnasium: I used to go to Mathnasium as a student and I loved both how engaging the environment was and how quickly I improved. It is a really nice and comfortable environment at Mathnasium.
Dan Hintz
Regional Director / Co-Owner
Dan has always had a passion for helping people achieve their potential and a calling to teach math. After high school, he earned an Associate of Science degree in Electronics Engineering Technology, before deciding to serve in the military. He served an Air Force tour in Germany as an F-16 fighter jet mechanic and fell in love with the mission and people. He decided to make the Air Force career and earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in Math at Central Washington University, while attending ROTC. He holds several Master of Science degrees related to his Air Force career. Dan served 22 years in the Air Force, leading thousands of men and women and managing a wide range of logistics programs, including the US President’s Air Force One fleet requirements, and many types of combat aircraft. He retired to spend more time with his wife and 6 children and to begin a lifelong dream of teaching math. He was voted Teacher of the Year by his high school students and earned 100% top ratings as a private tutor. Meanwhile, he was searching for why math seemed so easy to people in other countries, but was such a challenge to many Americans. He found the answer at Mathnasium and immediately joined in helping all students gain a true number sense and life-long confidence in math. He has taught, tutored and coached thousands of youth all his adult life. Dan and his team are committed to helping students grow their math skills and giving them the confidence to be or do whatever they want in life!
Why I love Mathnasium: It's everything a parent could hope for to build a student's confidence... life-changing!!
