Introduction - due on August 31

I am a senior studying Math Education. I have just started my last semester of classes and will start my student teaching in January. I am applying to do my student teaching in Washington DC and will find out in October if I got into the program. (keep your fingers crossed!) After I graduate, I want to move back to Salt Lake and teach at my old high school with two of my favorite teachers in the whole world! I have taken linear algebra, multi-variable calculus, differential equations, theory of analysis, and abstract algebra here at BYU. I am taking this class because it is a part of my major's requirements for graduation. I do like working with modular arithmetic though and would like to see some of that in this course.  Probably my favorite professors/teachers have been those that out effort into getting to know their students and how we learn individually.  They seemed to truly care about what we got out of their class and genuinely wanted us to succeed.
