Fundamental Mathematics
Math
Skill level: advanced
Format: small-group, on-campus
Duration: on going, 1 -2 hours/week
Description:
This course is designed and taught by a teacher with PhD in Applied Math who is passionate about mathematics and loves passing her knowledge to young learners. A significant part of her career she worked on a fusion of mathematical and scientific projects, then continued as a postdoctoral fellow in UCLA and worked as a programmer analyst after that.
