Recently retired after 30+ years teaching math in DCPS, where, among other things, I coached the city MathCounts teams numerous times and won a Raytheon Math Hero award. Made numerous telescopes in size from 2" to 12.5" diameter. Run a workshop where I teach others to do likewise. Used to write computer programs to help my students learn math - back when we began to have computers in the classrooms, but no useful software to speak of.
