Q&A with Larry

I have been tutoring Math regularly since I retired, and periodically prior to that. I am a good teacher because I very much want the person to be a success and am very happy when that happens. I can sense it when the student understands and, on the other end, I will know it when the student still does not get it. A key to learning Math is practice. Like most anything, the more you practice, the better you get, until it's getting easier and less intimidating, and then like magic, you know it.
