Many students grow to hate math because of the way it's taught in our schools.

I have my Math degree/Comp Sci minor from Clemson University where I graduated with a 3.78 GPA. I worked for a year as a Pre-Calculus, Calculus, and SAT/ACT tutor wit... Read more

This technique has been reported in several peer-reviewed journals and I have employed it... Read more
