Summary
Mathematics Instructor, My primary goal as a Mathematics professor is to promote critical thinking by applying my expertise in mathematical problem solving, research emphasis, and utilizing mathematical software and applications, including the Canvas LMS, to support system functions and mathematical innovations. Equipped with first-class training, 12 years of traditional teaching and years of 7 online teaching experience, excellent mathematical skills, and being detail-oriented, I am confident that this goal can be attained. As a mathematician, I am committed to keeping abreast with the latest mathematical developments by attending/presenting at research conferences and constantly enhancing my abilities. I have taught lower and upper-level math courses. I am confident that I will be an asset to the company based on my mathematical knowledge.
