So why am I qualified to teach quite a bit of Math, as well as basic physics and chemistry to high school students and students in their first college courses? Well to start with, I was trained as an engineer, with BS degrees in general engineering and mathematical and computational sciences. I took this degree and worked for NASA for a number of years, then in Silicon Valley for a few more years. That only says I know the subject matter. It's also important to be able to explain it.

Once the fear disappeared, math aptitude appeared and the ... Read more
