  • About me

    I am interested in Mathematics and methods for teaching Mathematics. I completed my Master of Science in Mathematics at the University of Bonn in March of 2010 in the area of Set Theory. My thesis was on forcing notions that add new real numbers to the real line, and in particular, proper forcing. After graduating, I taught middle school Mathematics at an International School in Bonn, Germany, and while I loved my job and my students dearly, I missed Mathematics. I’m currently working on my PhD at the University of Freiburg in Freiburg, Germany.

    If you would like to know why I’m holding a bike over my head in front of the United States Capitol building, take a look at my other website: myjoh.org.
