I am continually surprised by how many emails I get from teenage students thanking me for writing my math blog.<p>On top of that, I try to occasionally make it out to high schools to give guest lectures. I posted an example experience from one of these online [1] and I am usually looking for other opportunities to do this sort of thing. I think that if every math graduate student who is a reasonably good teacher took a day or two out of every year to visit a high school math class, we would see much more interest in math. Many of us (myself included) were not particularly interested in math in high school and didn&#x27;t discover the cool stuff until college. So we were once the audience we&#x27;d be appealing to.<p>[1]: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;jeremykun.com&#x2F;2011&#x2F;06&#x2F;26&#x2F;teaching-mathematics-graph-theory&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;jeremykun.com&#x2F;2011&#x2F;06&#x2F;26&#x2F;teaching-mathematics-graph-t...</a>
