His commitment leads him to innovate in the education area, and his present action research project is about the importance of Building Mathematical Growth Mindset Communities.

Teaching Math to English Learners
Teaching Math to English Learners ensures that all students are able to participate equitably in their learning communities, fostering students’ confidence in themselves as mathematicians and helping to inspire a lifelong appreciation for mathematics.
Excellent training – teachers were positive about what they learned!
Adrian was GREAT! We would have him back in a heartbeat! His passion and enthusiasm is contagious!
Adrian Mendoza was phenomenal. Our teachers took away a lot of new strategies from him and our administration was very satisfied. He is personable and makes things practical. He is flexible and easy to reach- very responsive. I am so excited to have his services this year, and our other buildings are starting to become more interested- so I see a future and long-term partnership with Seidlitz services in our district.
