About Jonathan

I don't teach rote methods. I find out how you think, and then we explore the concept. You will discover what you can do. So it's about you!

I like people. And it feels good to help.

There's a strange feeling of completion when I've helped a student to move from haziness to clarity. And there is a certain beauty in order, too!

A friend knew someone at a parochial school.  The head of the Math department was suddenly grievously injured, and wasn't expected to recover.  The principal offered me an emergency position as a "permanent substitute."  I accepted the challenge.

Months later, the teacher returned, and chose to be my mentor, and thus to permit me to continue.  A few months after finishing that school year, I got it in my head to apply to teach at a local vocational school.  It was another campus of a school at which I had earned my first degree.  They took a chance on me, and I didn't disappoint.

Now years later, having taught at a handful of local colleges and universities, I offer my experience and expertise to you, my new student!



Three degrees in Engineering, including ...

... a Master's degree from GA Tech ...

... and 20 years' experience teaching (most at the college level) ...

... and a love for Mathematics!

We chat a little.  Then we talk goals.  I assure the student that I can help him to meet those goals.  I tell some history to back up my claim.

Then we sit and try to solve some problems - preferrably those that have presented a challenge - and I help the student to see how his innate ability and knowledge to date are enough to make significant progress.



All sorts, really.  Capable, talented, challenged.

Because I don't teach rote methods, I can take on any student who wishes to learn.  My goal is to teach my students to think.  And since thinking is natural, it's just a matter of leadership.  I clarify concepts, and I affirm students.



Look for someone patient, insightful and flexible.  It's the three things a textbook can't be.



My recent GRE score:

Verbal, 167,

Quantitative, 169.



A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Am I afraid?

Can I stretch beyond what's easy?

Am I willing to put in the time and effort necessary?
