Biography

I currently teach four classes of 6th grade math at a charter middle school in East Los Angeles (Lincoln Heights). I teach ratios and ratio reasoning, basic operations, and some work with integers/rational numbers (within graphing and word problem contexts - no operations).
I previously taught high school and worked with Calculus students and the Math Team in a supportive role.
