Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a retired high school math teacher with 34 years of classroom experience, plus an additional 12 years of tutoring and 6 years of volunteer work at the high school. I thoroughly enjoy working with teenaged students.
I hope to start by offering one or two session courses on review topics that are essential in math classes as the student moves through the curriculum.
I hope to make the class helpful for the future and enjoyable in the present.Reviews
