About the store
In the past 10 years, I have worked with elementary Math Specials classes, all the way up to Precalculus. I was in the public school for 8 years, working the last 3 at a STEM High School. I now work for an online international private school, and have taught nearly every widely-used high school math course. My goal is to create resources to simplify the many tasks that make teachers' lives so needlessly busy and that will help parents and students as well. Currently developing resources of all sorts, also housed at flippinmath.com. From instructional manipulatives to projects, from review 'booklets' to lesson-planning software, I aim to give you back some of your most valuable commodity: your time!

Math for Parents: Elementary Edition

Created for a book by the same name, this bundle provides concise, easy to understand notes for the majority of the elementary school skills. The goal is to provide parents with the support they need to understand the 'new math strategies' and feel confident helping their children with their homework. Teachers can also benefit from the straightforward notes, procedures, and connections between the content topics. Some of these resources are available for free here on TPT, or through my website:

Preview of Multiplying in Chunks (M4P.E26)

Multiplying in Chunks (M4P.E26)

The 'new math' strategy of multiplying in chunks is really just an application of the Distributive Property. While this is a helpful strategy in and of itself for helping kids be more flexible with multiplying and dividing, it also paves the way for a clear understanding of the algebra used later in math class for multiplying polynomials.

Teaching style

I like to make my math students think for themselves. I give a lot of application problems, exploration tasks using Desmos or Geogebra, and have the students engage in projects as often as possible. I believe students perform best when they are engaged in authentic math. That being said, sometimes kids just need easy-to-understand notes!

Awards & shining teacher moments

EPIC Math Teacher of the Year (2021), Fusion Global Academy

My own education history

I got my Bachelors in Music Education from UGA (and have plans to complete a curriculum to develop sight reading skills in young learners). After teaching in a small private school for several years, I needed a more lucrative position. This led me to become a math teacher, studying online through Western Governor's University to receive my Masters of Arts in Teaching (Mathematics).

Additional biographical information

As an educator in today's society, I feel an enormous sense of duty. Technology has evolved exponentially over the past 20 years, leaving behind the 'old-school' traditions of education. I am interested in putting technology to good use and developing resources that help teachers to the same.
