Kyle Besing serves as an Assistant Professor of Mathematics and Mathematics Program Coordinator at Kentucky Wesleyan College, where he actively reshapes curriculum through evidence-based pedagogy and student-centered learning initiatives.
He earned a B.S. in mathematics with physics minor from University of Southern Indiana, followed by M.S. and Ph.D. in applied mathematics (with physics minor) from University of Alabama at Birmingham. His doctoral research investigated quantum oscillator systems through mathematical modeling.
Dr. Besing's scholarly work bridges spectral theory and mathematical physics, while his recent focus on mathematics education challenges innate-ability myths through active learning frameworks. His participation in the Mathematical Association of America's competitive Project NexT program directly catalyzed comprehensive curriculum redesign across Kentucky Wesleyan's mathematics offerings.
He emphasizes mathematical skill development as analogous to musical proficiency—requiring deliberate practice rather than inherent talent—and derives profound satisfaction from transforming students' self-perception as 'bad at math.' His educational philosophy centers on building transformative student relationships throughout their academic journey at Wesleyan.
