Fantasha Math Tutoring
About
Lots of people could care less about the application of math to reality (like physics and engineering). But people do math all the time in everyday life:
You set your alarm clock using subtraction.
You choose your car using ratios (miles per gallon).
You decide where you’ll live or work using distance (and tons of algebra to figure gas mileage and tolls).
Even vegging out watching TV uses math: “Do I have time during this commercial set to go pee?”
If you’re not using math, you’re either asleep or dead.
