Greg Fish
“ I was taking Pre College Math II (as a sophomore), which was geometry. I’ve always done well in math, so my teacher asked if I could possibly help some of the other students in my class. I did this for a few weeks and realized how rewarding it felt when other kids were understanding the problems because of my assistance….In the fall of 1999 I became a tutor at the math lab at my school.
I have continued to work at the math lab as of this date. It not only makes me feel good to know that my skills are also helping others but it hones my ability to be more successful in this field.
I’m very interested in the world of 3D animation and graphic design. Because of this I feel that my skills in advanced mathematics will be extremely valuable. And helping others has allowed me to see how different people work out problems, how many different ways people think. This can only make me more creative”.
