Simply put, he actually enjoys what he is doing. He is healthy and still sharp in his subject area, more power to him. I salute you Sir.
Exactly- we all should pray to find something we enjoy enough to do our entire lives. Retirement isn’t all its cracked up to be.
You can tell he loves what he is doing and will keep doing for as long as he can.
It's mostly a thankless and underpaid profession, which makes him a saint.
He should be the National Teacher of the Year!!!!!
Wow, what a legend!
My God. God bless this man‼️This is my 19th year of teaching and it has been hard. I am glad he still has the love and strength to continue to teach in his 90s. This is truly amazing.
An exceptional human being ❤❤❤
This is the beauty of math:
It requires some decent (QUALITY) effort, BUT your not facing a giant heap (QUANTITY) of work.
This is true. It looks like at least it's just down to the basics for him (although it is indeed sophisticated material).
He is amazing. 💛💫
He is utterly amazing.
Look at me. I'm in year 3, so i guess 60 more to go.
lol
I disagree that he has no children, his students could be seen as his in a sense.
nah. you trippin.
Bless his heart ❤️
CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🎈🎊
He must be the best mathematician in the country now. I wish I could have such stable job for six decades
Guy is doing what he loves

ご自分の教職に誇りを持っていることがよく分かる。
Wow! What an incredible human being! ❤
what a lovely old man
I love numbers and yearned to be a high school math teacher but school officials, particularly the DOE, discouraged me as much as they could (without making it look so obvious) from chasing my dream. I also recall CUNY guidance counselors discouraging me from pursuing my academic objectives. This was all done in an effort to keep certain minorities from reaching success and job security.
The New York City DOE is the definition of toxicity. So, I did others things with my life. Now at 59 years old with three (not boasting) college degrees, I find myself working as a security guard making peanuts for a living in a dead-end job with no pension, no benefits, a simple but confusing 401k (knowledge of the stock market is needed), and the list goes on and on. How about that for a story?
Wow
a lot of special beings in my home of Virginia
💚❤️
