About Me

Thank you for taking the time to look at my work! I’m a classic rock music fan, a coffee addict, a foodie, and a traveler. I am also an educator, speaker, and consultant.

I’ve been fascinated by math from a young age. I always thought that the ability to work with numbers is one of the most useful and essential skills one can build while studying in school and college. I also believe that even mathematical sciences can be fun and exciting to learn if you teach them the right way.

I’ve been a school teacher for over ten years. During that time, I’ve developed different teaching approaches, created an online course, and helped hundreds of students to fall in love with mathematical sciences. I believe that passion is crucial for teaching and inspiring young minds and I still have that passion in me.

My Teaching Philosophy

Education is my chosen career path, and I believe it’s a great privilege. I feel so grateful for the ability to work with students and to teach the next generation of thought and practice leaders. I also work with teachers, helping them build new education strategies. By doing this, I know that my work will have an impact on so many college students, even the ones I don’t teach personally.

I believe in personalized learning. I also think there are no dull subjects. Therefore, I do my best to make the learning process interesting for everyone, to encourage exploration and research, and to teach students to apply this knowledge not only in college but also in business and everyday life.
