What do you like most about learning?
I like to understand the world around me. I wish more people understood more about the world around them, too.
What is the biggest impact you’ve had on a student’s ability to become proficient in math?
We've had a number of students over the years who have gone through Mathnasium's program and are now instructors! Even for kids who don't love math, just showing them that they belong and their abilities matter makes a big impact too!
What type of math do you enjoy teaching most?
I really enjoy teaching kids about divisbility rules and showing them connections that factors show up in all sorts of things: fractions, prime and composite numbers, ratios, and so on... I also love geometry (not proofs, though!) because our physical world is made up of shapes and measures!
How do you make learning math fun for students?
Geometry is math that makes me say, "Gee!" and by the way, it's "Gee, Imma Try!" and not "Gee, Imma Give Up!" I love to make kids cringe with my bad puns.

I love to teach all levels, but I have a special place in my heart for pre-calc and calculus. I love those 25-step, nitty gritty problems.

What do you like most about learning?
I like that learning new things recontextualizes the world around me. Every new piece of information I pick up helps to give me a new understanding of why things are the way they are, and I find it very satisfying for the pieces to fall into place.
What is the biggest impact you’ve had on a student’s ability to become proficient in math?
Treating each student with compassion and an understanding that everyone approaches learning from a unique place has helped me meet students where they are so that we can both have an understanding of how to work towards their math proficiency.
What type of math do you enjoy teaching most?
I enjoy teaching algebra the most. I think that it acts as a sort of coalescing of previous skills and it is incredibly satisfying for both me and the student to see it click.

Creating a light and positive atmosphere for students where we can balance fun conversation and getting math done helps to make learning math fun for students.
