Teaching style
As a former high school math memorizer, I strive for students to understand patterns, relationships, and the "why"?
I am very much about giving the kids a situation and "let 'em have it!" with my support and guidance.
Many of my equation solutions are 'messy' answers. That is OK! Embrace the messiness.
