I have been told by many students that I make learning fun. I appreciate that they feel that way but I don't really agree. I think learning itself is fun and I just help students to see that. I take great satisfaction in watching students feel proud of themselves as they master a topic that had been challenging for them. I want students to see the joy they can take in learning.

After having taught at the collegiate level for over 20 years (I taught philosophy, religious studies, humanities, and English), at, among other places, one of the best honors colleges in the country (I taught numerous students who went on to become Rhodes Scholars), I taught mathematics at the secondary level for the last three years. Now I want to be a stay-at-home dad while still keeping a foot in education, since I truly have a passion for it and have devoted my professional life to it.

I enjoy working with all students but I especially want to encourage athletes. I taught many student athletes (some who have gone on to the NFL) and I was also the long distance track coach at my previous school and enjoy running myself. I appreciate the discipline it takes to excel in athletics and academics. Weniger lesen

I encourage understanding versus memorizing. I constantly told my students that there are two ways to do math (or whatever subject): you can memorize or you can actually understand what you're doing. I often respond to questions with questions that will guide you to the answer so you can discover and understand it yourself. Weniger lesen
