About Dwight

My name is Dwight Dunn and I have been teaching for approximately 17 years. I have taught at varying levels which include the following: High Schools, Community Colleges, and Universities. Primarily I teach the following courses: Personal Finance and Investing, PreAlgebra, Algebra, Geometry, Precalculus, SAT & ACT Math, and Calculus.
My Credentials include the following: Masters of Science in Pure and Applied Mathematics, Bachelor of Science in Math and Biology, and a Diploma in Accounts and Economics.

Teaching Philosophy:

As a teacher of mathematics, I embrace that the only way to learn mathematics is to do it and understand the rationale behind each step in each problem. By frequently associating oneself to multiple algorithms that surround a specific concept is the only way to perfect those skills needed to gain mastery. On the contrary, the process of reading examples and proofs in textbooks and from lecture notes is valuable but real learning comes through one's own efforts at solving mathematical problems. This is attained quite frequently by class assignments, but also by in-class discussions and exercises. I view my role as a facilitator for this process. That involves giving students the framework that will cultivate learning in a way that they can explore ideas on their own thus being their own master of the learning process. Thus constant stimulation and nurturing will be given to students that will aid in their development which may take the form of facts given, techniques, differentiated instructions, and encouragement.
My goals in teaching are not just to promote learning of the subject matter. I also try to help the students learn to think critically and logically, learn problem-solving methods and techniques, and improve writing skills (writing clearly and concisely, explaining step-by-step processes, providing valid reasons for logical arguments). I try to help students see the course material in a holistic context by requiring them to synthesize the various concepts of the course by applying them together. In addition, I try to let students realize the interrelatedness of math to other disciplines and how certain techniques learned can be used in a daily setting. One such example that I strongly believe is that our physical world is mainly created with mathematics and it is similar to a computer-generated world that relies on algorithms for everything in that simulated world to take place. So finally I have adopted the Motto of The Mico University College Jamaica (The oldest teacher training institution in the Western Hemisphere). Motto “ DO IT WITH THY MIGHT”

Finally, I am an avid soccer player that loves the beach all day every day.

My teaching methodology employs a number of different instructional strategies that normally start with an assessment of students knowledge gaps then create a plan to satisfy their needs. The strategies that I may use include multiple representations, discussions and reflection and problem solving opportunities-target the aspects of rigor within this standard.
