...truly understand what is going in their math classes. I believe that every student who is learning math should be able to ask what ever questions they desire and have a person to talk about them with. Well, let me be that guy.

I recognize that students' learning styles vary drastically, so I love implementing a number of educational techniques, be they aural, visual, or kinesthetic, to maximize student engagement with content.
