Saraleen Mae Manongsong, Ph.D.

Assistant Professor

Department of Mathematics and Computer Science
University of the Philippines Baguio

My day-to-day goal in teaching mathematics is to provide comprehensive, quality and up-to-date content, while encouraging participation through interesting and interactive student-based activities, helping them to appreciate the elegance of proofs, to construct rigorous proofs with strict logic and reasoning, and perform computations in various fields of applications. I believe in the intellectual capacity of every student regardless of age, gender, race, background, religion or ideology, and, hence, I commit in giving every student their right to learning with excellence and equity.
