Please note…
I had a nice, simple site that looked the way I wanted it to until Google forced me to the "new" Google Sites and made a hash of it. I'm in the slow process of trying to make the new version as much like the old one as possible. Please let me know (at the email address below) if there's something you need but are unable to get to.
I am a mathematics tutor focusing primarily on algebra, trigonometry, elementary calculus, and elementary statistics.
I live in Carpinteria, California, and work mainly in the Santa Barbara area.
I can be reached on my cell phone at 805-252-5469.

Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty – a beauty cold and austere,
like that of sculpture, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature, without the gorgeous trappings
of painting or music, yet sublimely pure, and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art
can show. The true spirit of delight, the exaltation, the sense of being more than man, which is the
touchstone of the highest excellence, is to be found in mathematics as surely as in poetry.
