What our students say about the Mathematics Secondary Education program
"Dr. Wagner was hands down the most supportive instructor, making class interesting with his profound passion for math. He delved deep into every question, showing genuine investment in our mathematical growth. My appreciation for math has grown immensely; I now understand its complexity and the profound ability of mathematicians to make sense of seemingly impossible concepts."
