...material. I have taken a variety of certification exams and am very familiar with their method of testing. My passion is helping people with ADD/ADHD, something I initially struggled with in school.

...something taught at school that won't be used in real life. I disagree. The power of math comes from its abstractness! 2 + 2 = 4 whether If we're talking about points in a basketball game or dollars in your piggy bank. Sure the numbers mean nothing by themselves, but there are infinite possibilities for what the numbers can represent. This is why when we learn math, we are secretly learning a lot more than...
