Hiram A. (Tony) Malaret teaches College Algebra, Precalculus Algebra, Trigonometry and calculus-level courses at Seminole State.

His early interest in the physical sciences led to an equally strong interest in mathematics; an interest that had a pronounced influence his academic and professional life.

After serving in the U.S. Army (mortars; yes, an application of ballistics) he attended the University of Puerto Rico at Mayagüez where he completed a B.S. in Mathematics with a strong physics background. Malaret's first teaching assistantship was as a physics lab instructor supporting the Physics for Engineering courses.

After obtaining a M.A. in Mathematics from the University of Miami, he received a commission in the U.S. Navy, serving first as an instructor at the U.S. Navy Nuclear Power School, and later in various supervisory and technical management positions in submarine and surface ship construction, maintenance, and repair programs. He went on to complete a graduate program at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), obtaining M.S. degrees in Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering. After a time in industry, he returned to what he has always found to be the most rewarding of professions: teaching.
