Hi there, I’m Yaileen, and I’m majoring in Med Imaging-AAS and Radiologic Tech. This major has consistently piqued my interest since it has always been something that caught my attention. I enjoy watching TV shows in my spare time. My favorite color is shades of pink and I love to go out and have fun with my friends on the weekends.
My favorite subject was math, which has so many interesting facts and tricky concepts. that you learn new strategies for grasping ideas and making connections between the dots to solve problems. the world of math problems can open up to you. additionally, how various approaches exist to solving the problems. word problems are the one aspect of math that I wouldn’t say I like since they can occasionally be difficult.
Hello, my name is Christopher Ferguson. I am a freshman here at City Tech, and I am greatly enjoying my time here. My major is Computer Systems which I wasn’t sure about at first but I am noticing how interesting it is. Besides going to school I’m usually in the gym for most of the day. I don’t care for pronouns but to clarify I go by he/him.
My opinion of math changed greatly over the pandemic and i grew to dislike it greatly. Over the pandemic I picked up many bad habits and lost focus when it came to math. I personally feel that my life is much better when I don’t have to do formulas and big equations, but I do what I must. I’ll put my feeling aside in order to pass this course and move on in my progression.

First Open Lab Assignment
Good evening my name is Joselito Hernandez, I am a transfer student from BMCC. I am currently majoring in Electronic Engineering. I chose this major of electronical engineering because I am fascinated by all the aspects it entails. Practically everything in this world is being run on electricity and my questions and visions of the electrical world is so vast that I want to learn more to be able to have answers to my own questions. A few of my academic interests are history and math. My hobbies include, restoring vintage speakers, receivers, collecting and playing records, hiking, bike riding, spinning vinyl records and watching action movies. I am a professional Master Barber, have been in this field of trade for 30 years now.
Math is the one subject that many frown upon, but few cherish the joy of Math in our everyday life. Math became one of my favorite subjects when I took Statistics back in 2001, with this amazing professor who took his time to work with me one on one. He showed me how you could see math in everyday life. That adrenaline you have when your neutrons and protons are in the middle of achieving that computational outcome that you never thought will be flourishing in your brain, ah amazing feeling. I do struggle immensely with the amazing world of Math, but like anything in life practice makes perfect, and having a great patient tutor (my oldest older who currently attend University at Albany) helps me as well.
I look forward in learning more from my professor and passing this class with a great grade.
