About Stuart

I've been a teacher at one level or another most of my life. I've done a lot of different things, and now I'm retired. I believe that although not everybody can be Charlie Epps, everybody can do high-school and college level math if it's presented correctly. The trick, as I see it, is to see math as a language for posing and solving problems, not as simply a practical tool. Not even a hammer is useful if you don't know something about how it's made and why it works.

Sorry, my practice is limited to high-school and college students; algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, probability, statistics, and real college-level stuff. I have no training for teaching -- and doubt my aptitude -- for teaching younger kids.

I have a Ph.D. in mathematical economics from the University of Wisconsin, and, more recently, an M.S. in Applied Mathematics from Northeastern Illinois University. I've taught at DePaul, Washington State and Wisconsin, among others. Now, as I said, I'm retired and, frankly, bored.

I'd like to help you.

I'm retired; I've done a little of everything over the years -- Army service, teaching economics, practicing law, playing in a band. Even though I'm old, I have a brand-spanking new M.S. in Math from Northeastern Illinois University.

See above. I've been a teacher most of my life.

About the lesson

English

At our first session (free!), I want to find out mostly how much math you know (more than you think!) and just how you're stuck now. Usually, if you've been comfortable with math in the past, the sticking point is small and easily fixed. If you haven't been comfortable with math, we'll have to start from farther back. Warning:  I will assign you problems to do between sessions.
