Reuben Villar is a mathematics instructor at Steele Canyon High School in the Grossmont Union High School District. A graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, Mr Villar also holds an MA in education from SDSU.He began teaching in the Grossmont district in1995.

"We use the videos in addition to daily direct instruction. This allows students another means of learning or reviewing the content. It also allows students who miss class or are motivated to move ahead the opportunity to view a lecture, or a struggling student to view the material in advance of the classroom lecture."


Catherine Kuznitz
is an SDSU grad who teaches mathematics at Steele Canyon High School. She is also an adjunct faculty member at Grossmont College where she teaches statistics.
