As a retired high school mathematics teacher, I have decided to use my retirement to make every effort I can to improve education -- specifically mathematics education.
My focus is in several very different areas:
-
Stressing to parents their extreme importance in the education of their children, and giving parents the tools to do just that. These tools include a series of Ezine articles about helping parents understand Algebra, “A Parent’s Guide To Algebra’s Basic Concepts,” and a series of Ezine articles for parents of pre-schoolers, “Helping Your Pre-Schooler With Math.”
-
Helping mathematics teachers improve their teaching skills by using the best brain-based teaching techniques.
-
Informing the general public about problematic issues related to education. Education is the key to our ability to compete in a global economy.
Everyone needs to care! Everyone needs to get involved!
