Explosions of Fun

Tutoring excites me...specifically, tutoring ALGEBRA excites me. I don't know what it is. Algebra is this complicated puzzle of letters, integers, and exponents galore! Everytime I solve or help someone solve a problem I feel a mini firework pop in my stomach. It makes me want to giggle and do a jig. I can hear my brain hissing "Yessss! One down, 30 more to go!"

The students think I'm a little strange, and they can't understand how one can feel such excitement for math. I think they appreciate my enthusiasm though; some have told me I make math as interesting as it can get.

Recently, I was talking about my wanting to take a math class for fun. SIGH...sometimes I am a little strange...and that's o.k. :)

(a + 30) + a = EXCITING!
