Paying Forward a Love of Math
Roger Eiss has been teaching for Saturday Academy for more than 25 years. He was close friends with Saturday Academy co-founder, Gail Whitney, and served on the board of directors. He was always good at math and discovered that there were many aspects of math he had learned on his own that could be learned by doing puzzles. After rotating off the board, he was recruited to teach a Saturday Academy class on recreational mathematics problems, showing students how to solve math problems when they don’t know the methods.
