Experience

I have been a teacher now for over a collective 20 years, 15+ of those teaching each mathematical level in Pennsylvania schools ranging from Pre-Algebra to Pre-Calculus. All of my submissions have been used for my classes for multiple years to great success.

Teaching style

At first I enjoy enticing students with a question or activity that leads directly into the notes for the day. This is followed by interactive questioning and mathematical practice and inquiry through example problems, followed by worksheets and quick assessment to determine accuracy.
