In high school, while the curriculum changed from multiplication tables to Calculus, the idea was...

...students from ages 5-17. My teaching philosophy entails a lot of practice and self-discovery. From my own experiences with challenging subjects, I know that going the extra mile by doing more practice problems than are actually assigned or watching videos on certain concepts helps reinforcement and allows students to thrive in the classroom.

...the Republic of Venice, which some popular accounts claim lasted for a thousand years, from 797 to 1797. I think old-fashioned political and diplomatic history is the cat's meow! I disagree profoundly with the view that it is not relevant to the study of history today. I also like to mold and fashion Renaissance people among my students, drawing for them the connections e.g. between mathematics and other disciplines, such as philosophy and music.
