Isaac Aguayo
Lead Instructor
Born and raised in San Diego and I studied Mechanical Engineering at SDSU with a minor in Anthropology. Physics and math have always been my favorite subjects because they help explain the randomness around us. I also am big on weightlifting, video games, and recently bowling. Favorite Number: My favorite number is 5 because even though it's an odd number it feels like and even if that makes sense. Also what I always used for sports as a kid. Favorite Math Joke: "What is the integral of 1/(Cabin)? A log cabin you say? NO! A houseboat, you forgot the C." In 5 years, I will be: working and designing different engines in cars or planes. I love Mathnasium because: it shows students that there is more to math than just equations and can help with problem-solving skills while also being fun. It also allows me to learn more as there is always more than one way to solve a math problem so it is really cool to see how others approach each problem.
James Walrath
Lead Instructor
James studied Electrical Engineering at the University of San Diego and loves applying math to real-world challenges. A San Diego native, he enjoys social games, mountain biking, and eating KBBQ with friends. His favourite number is e, which shows up in so many unexpected locations throughout mathematics!
At Mathnasium, James enjoys seeing students transform uncertainty into confidence, aiding students in building lifelong skills which will support them in school, daily life, and future careers.
Jamie Glass
Lead Instructor
Jamie is a San Diego native and psychology major at San Diego State University. She enjoys pilates, baking, walking her dog, and spending time with friends and family. Her favourite number is 9, tied to her birthday, soccer jersey, and luck.
At Mathnasium, Jamie loves helping students gain confidence in math. She finds it rewarding to see learners realize math can be approachable and even enjoyable once they build a stronger foundation.
Miranda Halverson
Lead Instructor
Although I am a San Diego native, I have studied Neuroscience in New York, worked in a laboratory in London, toured the country in a two-person production of A Christmas Carol, taught theater for Disney in Beijing, trained exotic animals in Seattle, even worked in a Mathnasium in Honolulu! Currently I am obtaining a Master's in Conservation at the San Diego Zoo. And guess what all these things have in common? Math! But feel free to ask me about almost anything. Favorite Number: Pi, because it has the best holiday. Favorite Math Joke: i says to pi: Be rational! pi says to i: Get real! In five years, I will be: Operating an outreach program to educate children about the awesomeness of opossums. I love Mathnasium because: The curriculum opens kids' eyes to how cool and useful their least favorite (often) subject can be. Math and opossums have a lot in common.
