This is why students must be mathematically prepared for whatever their future holds, whether it is scoring better on college entry tests or daily at whatever skill they seek to pursue.

Jordan is a Marine Corps veteran, but don’t worry, he’s actually one of the smart ones! Seriously though, Jordan is very sincere and passionate about mathematics and connecting/teaching students. Jordan discovered that this was his God-given purpose in life during his time as a youth minister at his home church for 2 years, soon after being honorably discharged from military service. Jordan looks forward to serving the community by assisting students to develop a growth mindset and a passion for the most important topic in school, MATH! Although, Mr. Guerrero is somewhat biased in this opinion!
