We see teaching mathematics as a form of story-telling, both when we present in a classroom and when we write materials for exploration and learning. The goal is to explain to you in a captivating manner, at the right pace, and in as clear a way as possible, how mathematics works and what it can do for you. We find mathematics to be intriguing and immensely beautiful. We want you to feel that way, too.
