About the store

I have been teaching mathematics for over 15 years and I love every minute of it. I have spent a lot of time over the past few years focussing on my resources and improving my teaching strategies. I recently had a child and watching them learn how to fit shapes into a block has shown me how hard learning/ It has reminded me how difficult various mathematical concepts can be and helped me refocus and appreciate the difficulties towards learning new topics some students can face.

About the store

Experience

Teaching style

I love to visually represent math ideas and concepts to help students realize those 'ah ha' moments. I also love a good activity to link mathematics to the real world or a fun game to play to liven up a lesson. I like a mix of independent work and group work. I like to mix it up a bit to stop my teaching from getting stagnant.

My own education history

I have recently completed my MA in Education. This sounds odd to say as a teacher, but I was never a huge fan of learning when I was younger, however going back to study helped me find a love for learning and showed me again how much I enjoy teaching and want to make it an enjoyable experience for everyone I teach.
