I care about people and love to help out.
I volunteered as a GED math tutor at the Literacy Services of Wisconsin on weekends for more than eight years. I still volunteer three times a week at East Brook Church's Neighborhood Learning Center. I am very patient and encourage people to read their math. I want them to notice what a cumulative and self-checking science math is. Subtraction can be checked with addition, division can be checked with multiplication, and techniques learned in fractions appear again in percent, ratios, proportion and conversion factors. I want people to know that if they can read they have the tools they need to do well in math whether they like math or not.

I tell them math is a skill and tool like reading and writing that they can certainly learn. Math is not a big menacing person.
I have a BS in Chemistry from Chicago State University with a minor in math. I studied computer science at Illinois Institute of Technology. I've always been very curious about what things are made, so I majored in Chemistry. Almost everything has a composition, Chemistry can find or even build compositions, and Math quantifies the ingredients of a given composition. Chemistry and math really satisfy my curiosity. I've been and still am a working chemist for nearly thirty years. Of course, I use math at work it is a very useful tool in many fields. During school I helped family and friends with math. As a working Chemist, I always wondered if there was some way I could give back to the community in a very safe and direct manner. I looked into volunteer opportunities e
