Additionally, being able to explain a mathematical...

...statistics for over 5 years. I enjoy helping students gain a better understanding of these subjects by engaging them actively. I like to make sure students are not just given answers, but have a clear understanding of how those answers were obtained.

I also like to mold and fashion Renaissance people among my students, drawing for them the connections e.g. between mathematics and...
