I hold a degree in Geometry from Dakota State University. My passion lies in unraveling the intricacies of shapes and space, guiding students through the wonders of geometric concepts. With a knack for simplifying complex ideas, I foster a supportive learning environment where students thrive. Whether exploring angles, polygons, or proofs, I'm dedicated to illuminating the beauty and logic of Geometry. Let's embark on this geometric journey together!
Questions
