Students will be given number tricks where I will “read their mind” and guess their number. Then we will see explore these Magic Tricks by simplifying algebraic expressions. The class will end with students creating their own magic number trick to be able to read others’ minds. This class can be used as a follow up for students with basic pre-algebra skills or for students interested in Algebra, but need that visualization. The class is a discussion class. Students will explore and make mistakes and I will guide them using their strategies. Students should be able to add, subtract, multiply and divide one and two digit numbers. **Be sure to check out the Applied Maths Series for grade 3 to Geometry which include one new activity each week!**

PHILOSOPHY
Hi all you eager learners out there! I'm Kristen Bennett and my outlook to learning is to make mistakes, explore different strategies, ask "why," and above all - have FUN!
BACKGROUND
I hold a California Teaching Certification in Mathematics Education (grades 6-12), and a Masters Degree in Mathematics Education K-8. I have extensive experience teaching in US public schools, and have taught for the last four years at top-level international schools in Tokyo, Japan.
In 2020, I decided to change my primary role as a teacher in the classroom, to being a full-time mom to take care of my two daughters. After making an international move from Tokyo back to the United States with my family, I realized half of my heart belongs to being a teacher and supporting the growth of eager learners like you. Outschool happened to be a great platform to enable me to do that.
STYLE
My classes focus on making mathematics relevant to you. I am a non-traditional teacher. I use research-based methods that encourage discourse, problem solving, engagement and critical thinking. The activities chosen are well thought out to ensure they are current, applicable in the real world, and incorporate multiple mathematical skills, instead of "just one".
LET'S GET STARTED!!
I have helped thousands of students all over the world to understand and elevate their knowledge of mathematics. Whether it's to get ahead, catch up , or just prepare for examinations, I welcome and encourage ALL learners to join me in building mathematical confidence you can "count" on!
Note: ALL OF THE CLASSES ARE WELCOMED TO REQUEST SCHEDULING.
So, what are you waiting for? Let's Get Started!!
