Mr. Jerry Meyerson
A Brief Resume
You are entitled to know something about me, as you are either a student of mine, or the parent /guardian of a student in my class. My name is Jerry Meyerson; I am from South Carolina.
-
I went to College at Cornell University, Clemson University, and the University of Tennessee
-
I have a bachelor’s degree In Chemical Engineering, a Masters in Mathematics, and completed most of the work for a PhD in mathematics.
-
I worked in and managed chemical plants all over the world including plants in South Carolina, Louisiana, Iowa, Belgium, and Greece.
-
I retired from industry, got bored, and started teaching engineering in Tennessee
-
My bride got cold in Tennessee, so we moved to Florida, and live in Dunnellon.
-
I got bored again, and began teaching Math at The College of Central Florida, where I continue to teach
-
Mrs. Ellspermann approached me and said the students at Westport are totally great, and as a result here I am teaching all dual enrollment math.
-
Mrs. Ellspermann’s observation on the quality of students here are thus far proving accurate. I give exactly the same exams here as I give at the college. The scores at Westport are consistently higher by a large margin.
-
I am passionate about mathematics and the beauty of the science. I do not expect everyone to share my passion, but I hope to convince a lot of students that math can be extremely useful tool over our lifetime.
-
I am equally passionate about the field of engineering. A lot of students here have the aptitude to do well in an engineering career and I hope to have conversations with each of the students showing an interest in the profession.
I would be happy to answer any questions you may have about me or the course.
