I've been an educator for 20 years! I taught math every grade from 2nd-8th for 14 years before coaching teachers and being an administrator. What makes me a great math teacher isn't just the content knowledge, it's breaking down abstract in an enjoyable way.
In my classroom I'm more progressive in my approach. I love rich problems. There are multiple ways to represent a problem and multiple solutions. In video I do think being explicit and direct is more helpful for students so I also have workshop model lessons.

I love creating curriculum and videos for kids, families and teachers. I really believe anyone can be a Math Marvel, we all have this ability in us. Teaching math is a true gift. Check out my YouTube Channel for videos of my teaching lessons. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCivpePccEA-3yppDpHElcLw
