About Me
SUBJECTS
EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY
I came from a background where education was not considered very important. I struggled through math classes in high school. I went on to acquire a major in the field and have been very successful academically. It took hard work and dedication on my part.
If I can do it, I believe anyone can do it. Some students just need more help than others in some areas, and given that I struggled in mathematics, I believe I am capable of inspiring students to persevere and succeed.
EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND
I struggled with Mathematics as a student when I was younger. Eventually, I was able to succeed and went on to acquire a math major. It took hard work and dedication, but if I can do it, I am sure I will be able to help others who struggle in this area.
TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I volunteer in the math tutor hall at UMKC and was able to coach other students on selected mathematical topics and ideas.
EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
I have a full time job, a wife, and two young children. In my spare time, I love to read, and I love to teach my children new things. They are very young, and spending time with them is very important. Working with my wife to help them develop and grow has been both a challenge and a very rewarding experience.
