Mike M.

Manager

As former high school teacher with over 20 years of experience, I have worked with all kinds of students, from highly gifted to complete math-​phobes. With advanced students, I am always able to challenge them, encouraging them to use profound creativity in problem-​solving. With folks for whom math does not come easily, through a combination of humor & patience & encouragement I have made countless students in this category feel better about math and more confident about their own abilities in math. I have years of experience in accommodating material to a particular student’s learning style, and I often have several suggestions about how the student can translate what she needs to know into a form that she can really get. For me, teaching is not telling, not backing up a dumptruck of knowledge; teaching is asking questions and creating conditions so that the student has as many «aha’s» as possible.
