w:Christina Eubanks-Turner is a professor of mathematics in the Seaver College of Science and Engineering at Loyola Marymount University (LMU). Quotes ou don’t need to have a special brain or be a certain kind of person to take on math I find it very rewarding,” said Eubanks-Turner. “Most teachers join the program because they love learning mathematics. Even teachers who have been in the classroom 20 or 30 years learn something they never knew or see an aspect of math in a new way. Christina Eubanks-Turner makes comment about LMU's Masters Program I knew I wanted to be a mathematician later when I was in college.2I originally majored in computer science, but I really disliked computer programming. I loved the logical thinking involved in creating computer algorithms, which I realized was just mathematical thinking, but I found the actual coding and learning of the syntax of languages like C++ and Java to be mundane, tedious work. As far as enjoying math when I was growing up, I really did not know I liked math, I just like to solve puzzles and play logic games. There’s a thinking that lends well to doing mathematics. Mathematicians have to be precise in their thinking and they have to be good at analyzing definitions and proofs. In fact, even when mathematicians have found a solution to a problem Although I did not realize it, I did many things to build my mathematical abilities.
