Experience

I have 18 years teaching all levels of mathematics at the high school level, and 10 years teaching all levels of mathematics at the college level. Prior to teaching I was a computer programmer in the aerospace and CAD industries; I also worked many years as a freelance web designer and web programmer.

Teaching style

In my experience, students prefer traditional instruction: examples, guided practice, independent practice. I incorporate graphing calculators as much as possible into instruction because students love handheld devices and trying things out on their own.

My own education history

B.S. in Mathematics-Computer Science, UCLA; M.Ed UCLA; M.A. Mathematics, UC Riverside.

Additional biographical information

My textbook "Programming Precalculus with Python" will be published by Cognella Publishing in Winter 2023. This textbook teaches both Precalculus and Python concepts completely integrated.
