After working in the Engineering Profession for over 20 years, and with a major decrease in engineering positions available in New Jersey, I looked to an alternate career as a Math Teacher. I started as a substitute teacher in both the Paterson, NJ and Pompton Lakes, NJ school systems, then obtained teacher certification through the Alternate Route Program, and have been teaching high school since 2005.
I attempt to show the importance of mathematics by relating subject matter to practical applications. I stress the need for critical thinking and common sense solutions to problems. I try to look for the good in every student, and reward them with praise for a job well done, no matter how small the accomplishment may be. If I can instill a good work ethic and a desire to succeed, I feel that I have helped students prepare for continuing education and/or entrance into the workforce.
