Martin never claims to have obtained the best grades in town; at teaching math and truly understanding student needs, he is exceptional. His broad concept of teaching and personal experience has allowed him to adapt to nearly every type of student. His experience has included both gifted and learning disabled students. Martin stresses that it is quite possible for a student to be both gifted and Learning Disabled. He uses Albert Einstein to illustrate this. Martin has also written an article for a community newsletter regarding ADHD.
