About Me

My photo
Marsha Landau, Ph.D.
Evanston, IL, United States
I am a retired mathematics educator and test preparation expert now doing individual mathematics mentoring with gifted students in grades K-9, usually emphasizing enrichment mathematics but sometimes acceleration as well. My students love mathematics, love to be challenged, love learning, and love the fact that I "get them." I write picture books for children 7-13 years old. The stories have mathematical ideas as central themes and are intended to be read with children by parents and teachers. My goal is to create a site for sharing math education ideas and materials with interested teachers, parents, and students. Contact me at mathmarsha@comcast.net.
