About the store
I have been a math teacher for almost 20 years, and I've taught...Kindergarten thru University level courses! I started out as a high school math teacher, then moved "up" into teaching math courses for Park University…which I still do. The BIG promotion came when I started homeschooling my two boys (and many of their friends). I've taught gifted students, challenged students, and students who thought math was BORING. My favorite students to teach, though, are the ones who think they can't do it. I love proving to students that they CAN do it. Because math is possible for anyone at any level.
