About Frank

I'm a consulting applied mathematician. That means I apply mathematics to help solve real world problems. To be an applied mathematician, one must not only have a deep and broad understanding of mathematics, but a real interest in real world problems and the mathematical needs of people concerned with those problems. For more information, check out my website: (concealed information)

In his autobiography, Charles Darwin wrote the following. "I attempted mathematics, ... but I got on very slowly. ... This impatience was very foolish, and in after years I have deeply regretted that I did not proceed far enough at least to understand something of the great leading principles of mathematics, for men thus endowed seem to have an extra sense." He's right! Being informed and comfortable with "the great leading principles of mathematics" allows one to understand real world problems that baffle those without this understanding.

Well, first I was a student.  During the course of my education I paid attention to those actions of my teachers that worked (i.e., were educationally effective), and equal attention to those which were not.  Since then I've tried to avoid practices that didn't work well with me.  From being a graduate student in applied math, the next logical step is to become a professor, i.e., a teacher of mathematics.



I have a Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics from Harvard.  I've been a professor of mathematics and statistics at WOU and Willamette.

Well, first I have to get to know something about the student.  How we proceed from there depends on their needs and my judgment about the best way to address these needs.



I'm just getting started in this tutoring business.  I think I can work with any kind of student, as long as they're willing to work as hard as necessary to achieve their goals.  There is no magic pill one can take that will give one a math education, but I believe that with a certain amount of perseverance anyone can achieve a reasonable mastery of mathematics, as well as a pleasing level of comfort with the subject.



For a tutor to be able to help you, you have to be totally honest about what you want to achieve, what gives you difficulty, and how hard you're willing to work.



I've recently published a couple of papers on "Benford random variables" that I'm reasonably proud of.  I've thereby continued a line of research begun by my grandfather (also named Frank Benford).
