Jana Huffstetler
Instructor
Hello! I'm Jana, and I'm proud to be an instructor here at Mathnasium. I'm currently in college aiming to go into counseling. Math has become one of my favorite subjects over the years. In middle school, I had a really bad year with math, and I thought I didn't like it. The next year, I got to retake that same math with a teacher that put her heart into making it understandable, and that's where my love for it stems from. I love puzzles and problem-solving, and that's what math feels like to me. I want to understand how it works and how I can make it less intimidating to take on.
That's why I like being an instructor here. Math isn't easy, but that makes it all the more rewarding when you figure out how it works. It's a joy to see that same understanding light up a student's face, especially with a subject they may have a harder time understanding. Math doesn't have to be the bane of a student's existence. Sometimes, they just need a different approach to learning it.
