How can I teach Math developing the creativity on my students?We Answered:
get em doing huge calculations... such as, if a car is doing 40mph, how many feet per second will it cover?how fast (in centimetres per second) is their favourite sports car...
at 40mph, it produces Xmany horsepower, how much fuel does this consume?
etc... the data you require is posted on the manufacturers website...
seemingly abstract math (like algebra) is BORING... but not when the student realises the application of the math... such as calculating the area of a triangle.
and of course all teh different applications of Pi...

Do you need a specific mathematics degree to teach math at an aeronautical academy?We Answered:
To start off, you'd probably want to contact someone at the academy you're wanting to teach at. Find out the backgrounds of people who are doing the job that you want to be doing. If nothing else, you could find out their degrees.At a minimum, you'll probably want a Masters in math, if not more. I'm not sure how different the credentialing is between a University and an Academy, but at a University you need a PhD in math. You'd probably also want a strong background in physics.

How to go from an Accountant to Math Teach?We Answered:
I'm assuming your major in college was accounting. To teach a full load in a subject area such as math, you must obtain enough credits in that subject to become a major. If not, the Board of Education will consider it to be a minor, in which case you will only be allowed to teach a reduced load in that subject.So, find out what is required by course or credits by the board in the state you wish to teach. You may have enough or need to pick up one or two more depending on the level you wish to teach. You have a degree, the rest should be simple. I'm assuming you already have enough to teach accounting at the high school level.
Good Luck!

How to teach math to a 7 year old?We Answered:
He's a 7 year old. Of course he canonly do simple problems. In order
for him to learn how to add, he must
make the connection that five fingers
plus three fingers is always eight fingers.
And after he understands up to 10, then
have him learn 11-20 by telling him its
the same thing except you now have an
extra 1 to put in front of it. (or 2 if its 20)
