How do you use Shmoop?

We use it to enhance the topic of the day, and as a commercial (funny) break about math.

What's your favorite Shmoop product?

The Math Shack and videos.

Just add video for greater math.

What is the coolest experience you've had using Shmoop?

Students sign along with the video or act out the video. Also having students explain to other students what the video was about and why it's helpful.

When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up?

A hotel owner, because I would have gotten to make people happy and let them have fun on their vacations.

We're pretty sure you're still nailing the make-people-happy thing.

Batman or Superman? Defend your choice in one sentence.

Batman—he is smart, rich, and technically just a human that has used his brain and brawn to take himself to the next level.

Emphasis on the brain, but the brawn is a plus.
