I strongly believe that understanding concepts is just as important as being able to work out technical problems, and that all students (regardless of perceived mathematical intelligence) have the ability to do so. I also understand how mathematics functions to gatekeep some students from certain majors...

I would then provide a useful note sheet and go over a refresher of some of the concepts we would be focusing on.... I would talk...

...thought process that are the basis of my own understanding of the subject, not just rules to follow or things to memorize.

In my spare time I enjoy cycling, skiing, woodworking, reading, and vacationing to Lake Superior.
