I graduated with high honors and an International Baccalaureate Diploma from Central High School in Saint Paul, Minnesota, where I participated in the University of Minnesota Talented Youth Math Program, captained the Math Team, and participated in Science Olympiad and Ultimate Frisbee. I currently attend Harvey Mudd College in Claremont, California, where I am a freshman. I enjoy playing video games, playing board games / RPGs, playing Ultimate, and fixing things.
Hi, I'm Graham! I did my undergraduate degree in Philosophy at the University of North Carolina (Chapel Hill, NC). Right now I'm working on an MA in Teaching at Bethel University (Saint Paul, MN). I had a blast student teaching a world history course at Irondale High School and a geography course at Edgewood Middle School, and have been doing quite a bit of one-on-one tutoring over the last couple years. I love to teach! What I like to do outside of school: Climb rocks, run, bike, read math books, write fiction, cook, stick my hands in dirt, contemplate the universe, and hang out with my wife.
I am originally from Guyana, South America. I came to the U.S in 1991 and lived in Brooklyn, New York for about four years before moving to Minneapolis, Minnesota where I currently live. I went to the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities, where I attended the Institute of Technology and received degrees in Mathematics and Mechanical Engineering. I currently work as a Learning Coach at Sophia and am pursing a masters degree in Instructional Design for Online Learning from Capella University. My goal for Sophia is to provide a clear understanding of math and science concepts by relating them to elementary ideas. My hope is that the method(s) I employ will make what seem to be very complex ideas much more approachable and appreciated.
Hello! Anthony here! I hold degrees in Education with a Specialization in Mathematics, as well as in German Studies, both from the University of Minnesota Duluth. I am licensed to teach mathematics in the state and Minnesota, and am currently enrolled in a Masters of Education program specializing in Instructional Design for Online Learning. My program is through Capella University. My educational experiences are varied. In addition to working in Duluth Public Schools, I have worked as a Tutor with the AVID program in the Saint Paul Public Schools, as well as a Math Teacher and Department Lead for LearningWorks at Blake, an enrichment program for middle schoolers in Minneapolis Public Schools. I began contracting for Sophia in October 2011, and have enjoyed every minute. I authored content for the Sophia Pathways, helped organize the taxonomy for the many different levels of math we have on the site, and reviewed many of the quiz items you see next to our math concepts. I have also authored some screencasts for our College Algebra Pathway. I'm currently working for Sophia as an Academic Support Coordinator for Sophia Pathways for College Credit. I help facilitate the production and review of the video tutorials that go into our SPCC courses. I get to use technology everyday to reach teachers and learners around the globe. Plus, I'm always exercising and learning new skills. Could it get any better?
