...always looking for ways to show how cool and fun mastering these subjects can be. Although I am most passionate about physics, I also tutor math and Spanish.

...math problems it all starts with the same steps: A) What do I know? B) What do I want to know? C) How do I get from A to B? I did PhD research in computational chemistry and dream of becoming a middle school math teacher if I win the lottery. PS - My online...
