Consequently, if a problem has an unexpected twist, that twist did not frustrate me to correctly so... Read more

I have over 25 years experience as a math teacher and tutor. Simply put, I love working with students, both in a classroom setting and one-on-one as a tutor.

Although I certainly like working with st... Read more
