Math and Logic Related Services

Site author Alan Selby has a 1983 Ph. D. in mathematics. He has taught college and high school mathematics. He has written five books and web pages exploring and looking for better ways to build and motivate skills and comprehensions. He is a critic of course materials and design in Quebec high school mathematics.

Mr. Selby offers services in three areas

Educational Services: Tutoring to Consulting

Technical Writing, Technical Training and Quality Assurance Services for training, software development and quality Assurance.

Applied Mathematics: Advice, Directions & Risk Analysis for Computations, Elementary to Complex.

Make first contact with this email form.

Mr. Selby offers group instruction with individual attention during and if need-be after group lessons. Mr. Selby also offers long-term individual instruction.

Adult and Serious Students may arrange math and logic instruction for themselves. Students, weak to strong, but with the will to work are preferred.

Businesses may arrange education seminars to check and develop employee math and logic skills and confidence. Logic mastery, a must for greater precision in reading and writing, would lead to clearer communication and less confusion at work.

Community Associations may arrange Help your child learn math seminars for their employers or Members, and week-end or summer math camps for adults and youth.

Parents and Relatives may sponsor summer and week-end jobs where students are paid to meet and master mathematics. Students themselves can contact parents and relatives to get a sponsor.

Parents, Tutors and Teachers may attend or arrange multi-week seminars to upgrade, check and perfect their mathematics coaching skills.

School Boards, Parent Associations and Curriculum Designers may ask for a review of course materials and lesson objectives.

Each client is different. Some testing is required to find his or her level.

Mr. Selby has a knowledge of English and French sufficient to help students in either language, but his writing skills are limited to English.

Technical Writing, Technical Training and Quality Assurance Services

Mr. Selby has written one article for the Transactions of the American Mathematics Society; written electrical engineering software (20000 lines of code) for commercial ends; written documentation and user manuals for the latter; and co-authored IEEE papers, conference proceedings, that exploited the latter software. He has helped colleagues edit and fine-tune papers. Mr. Selby has met several structural and object oriented programming languages in GUI design and scientific programming. Mr. Selby's strength lies in logic analysis.

Mr. Selby can follow and clarify complex reasoning. He can work to ensure that the design and implementation of software or other kinds of program is rational. He can work to identify to identify risks and assumptions in the foregoing. He is allergic to nonsense and incompleteness in program design, implementation and description. That sensitivity is a must for quality assurance in development and training, and stopper for projects which may too ambitious.

Mr. Selby has a broad, general technical knowledge of the mathematics in science, technology and business sufficient to understand the origins and to judge the merits and limitations of simple formulas and complex calculations (numerical methods) in many, many situations.

Mr. Selby offers the following

Help in checking the accuracy and suitability of simple formulas in the well-known but almost forgotten category.

Help in checking or developing formulas and numerical methods for ends in business, science or engineering.

The foregoing help may be provided to people working for a living and may be provided to students and their professors in colleges, university and research institutes.
