Closing in on the Theorem...

In response to student productivity and output, I have recommitted myself to providing even more challenging and engaging home nugget lessons, beginning with this evening. The goal is not to simply make lessons more labor intensive, rather to guarantee that students are being sufficiently prepared for the more sophisticated mathematics that lies ahead. The intention is to allow students to have a genuine and enduring understanding of problem-solving and the work ethic that most often accompanies it.
