I hope to help not only with specific learning goals but also to guide in the formation of tools that...

...with a challenging subject, its tempting to think its beyond you. But growing up, anytime I had a question about math, I could go to my dad who taught math at a University level and he would make the subject fun and engaging. Because of that, I grew up loving math. No matter how difficult it was to grasp a concept at first, my dad would approach it in different ways until something clicked and...
