This math teacher has an adorable way of helping with homework

A math teacher is going viral after surprising one of his students with some much-needed homework help.

The heartwarming saga started when, Rylee Anderson, a 12-year-old from Madison, S.Dak., was struggling with an algebra assignment.

The sixth-grader wanted to ask her teacher for help, .

But, due to the current global health crisis, she’s been confined to remote learning.

So, she sent her teacher, Chris Waba, an email.

But Waba had a better idea: He grabbed his whiteboard and started walking.

A few minutes later, Rylee’s doorbell rang, and there was her teacher — reading to work through the assignment.

Rylee’s father, Josh Anderson, shared a photo of the exchange on Twitter.

Anderson, who happens to be the head football coach at Dakota State University.

Told Good Morning America that the behavior seemed appropriate from Waba.

Who he called “a really good teacher and a really good person"
