A quick introduction on what fractions are. 

Math

Hi Everyone! I have been an educator for over 15 years, teaching in the US, Asia, and the Middle East. I have a BA in Secondary Education and an MBA. I have taught everything from Math (up through HS Geometry and Algebra) to History (US, World, Asian, European), English (TEFL certified, 5 years teaching English as a second Language), and even Science (making stuff fizz and pop is fun!). I've also learned a number of things through my travels; cultural adaptation, working through communication barriers, travel organizing, living overseas, chess, how to work with people from multiple countries and cultures! There is so much I want to share! I am truly excited to teach and learn with you.
