...development, from crib to cane, basically. How can that help your child? Well, I really know how memory is formed, retained, and recalled, and what it looks like when something is not happening the way it should.

For example, I once had a 3rd grader who wasn't reading fluently, and her...

...giving my students the answer, I enjoy helping them understand how to think about the concepts. Even if Trigonometry sounds dry, for example, I have seen how explaining it in terms of "pretend you want to hit the baseball farther than anyone else and you need to figure out what angle will get you there" can make a light bulb go on. All of my previous students have had different learning styles, personalities, and interests;...

...practice. Enriching the math toolkit can range anywhere from learning new ways to solve problems to learning how certain formulas work so you're more comfortable with them.

...made him learn J.S. Bach. That was a good thing: although Joplin is rompingly good, nobody but nobody develops a theme as Bach did. And that's some serious order, folks. The good Professor had the good fortune to take the highest Mathematics courses available in high school, which included Calculus and Trigonometry. That prepared him to be a tutor while in college studying electronics at DeVry. He helped his classmates, others' classmates, and even his...

...well as math and science. Teaching is the most rewarding job I've ever had. I love working with students to find what motivates them, and helping to achieve their goals.

...more conducive to all viewpoints and backgrounds in the classroom. I now teach composition and literature classes at a community college and tutor at the college's writing center. I've brought with me lessons that I learned from growing up and teaching in Prince George's County; to be sure, my new setting offers its own brand of a diverse student body, and I'm grateful for the challenges my students present to me every day. Whether at...

...ACT and the GRE, I am able to show students how to best prepare for these tests by helping them understand how the writers of these tests seek to challenge the test taker.

...Study Russian Teaching is challenging, exciting and gratifying; as a year progresses you can see the difference that you make in the eyes of your students.

I want all my students to feel capable of doing mathematics. My challenge as a...
