I take great joy in sharing life lessons and taking full advantage of all teachable moments. I am very p... Read more

Later I earned my Master’s degree from Teachers College at Ivy League Columbia University. I taught math in the classroom for most of 1999-2014, in every class from 6th ... Read more
