Tips For Success in the Classroom

Tip 1.  Find a seat in the classroom where you feel comfortable.  The front of the room is usually a good place.  There are less distractions in the front of a classroom.  It is easier to pay attention and answer questions that the teacher asks.  This will allow you to get to know your teacher a little better than if you are in the back of the room.  The board or overhead is also easier to see in the front of the room. 

Check back to read more tips for success in the classroom.

Congratulations to the Graduates!!

Last Saturday, May 23rd, Marymount College in Rancho Palos Verdes held the commencement ceremony for 2009.  I was very happy to be in attendance and to see so many students that I have worked with walk across the stage and receive their diplomas.  Math can be a major hurdle for many students to jump as they are going through school.  Some students spend 4 years at a junior college because they cannot pass their math courses while others give up on college completely.  At Marymount College, students have the opportunity to fulfill their mathematics requirements for their bachelor’s degrees and transfer to a four year college.  Given the small class sizes and the tutoring services that are offered, students have a chance to do very well in math and reach their goals!!
