In this class, students will learn math tricks, or if we want to say differently: students will practice a bit of subtraction with regrouping, addition, and work on the concept of place values and recognizing patterns. This lesson will help them get a better understanding of their arithmetic skills and reinforce their understanding of how same digit can have different values. At first, I will try to trick them with my math-magic-wand, and then we will work on the math behind. I will guide them through the session. For their best experience, they should be familiar with addition and subtraction with regrouping, and comfortable with sharing their answers.
Learning Goals
Students will improve their understanding of:
- place values concepts,
- subtraction with regrouping, and
- pattern recognition.
The goal of the class is for students to have fun and perform different calculations while learning a math trick.
I will ask them to think of a 3-digit number, give some directions, and then I will let them know the number they have got. Then we will expand this trick even more to get the Magical 1089.
Cool, isn't it!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics from Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje
Hello, my dear students, parents, or guardians!!
** If there is no class offered on my calendar, please feel free to reach out to me and I will open a section for you.
* I take Sundays off, so I don't respond to emails or messages on that day.
I'm a passionate math teacher and educator, who loves working with children. I'm joyful and persistent person with a bachelors degree in teaching mathematics. I have been tutoring, teaching math and working with pupils for over 10 years. I'm creative, open, positive and most importantly, a reliable teacher.
I have more than five years of classroom teaching experience as a public school math teacher in Europe (middle school and high school), three years as a math instructor in after school programs in Canada, three year as a math tutor on Outschool, and a background which includes overall of more than 10 years of tutoring math.
My rich experience allows me to effectively assess student's challenging areas and focus on them. I always give students space and encourage them to share their opinions and thoughts.
My approach is an easy and fun way for students to enhance their math comprehension.
I believe that every child should have the opportunity to learn how to cherish and love math.
I spend my free time as a bookworm :D Avid reader here! I enjoy relaxing while playing my acoustic guitar and listening to classical music.
Let me drop some Fun Facts for me: I have lived on 2 continents, I can fluently speak, read and write in 5 languages (and I'm a math teacher, not a language teacher can you imagine?), and 10 is my favorite number. Did I say 2, 5, and 10? Oh, those multiplication fact families, they are everywhere!
My motto is: Whatever you do, make sure that you do it with your whole heart!

My Policy (in addition to the general Outschool policy)
****According to the Class recording policy of Outschool: ''Enrolling in class does not guarantee access to class recordings - they are shared at each teacher's discretion. "
I keep the discretion TO NOT SHARE THE RECORDINGS if two or more learners were following the meeting by default. Exceptions are possible. However, I would be happy to share the recording of any 1:1 class.
**** If parents are answering the questions directed to the students I will kindly ask them to restrict themselves from doing that, if that continues I will message privately, and if that continue happening I will contact the Outschool support for assistance.
**** Camera ON
Please can you encourage your learner to stay on the camera during the class, so we can have quality non-verbal communication as well. Sometimes, student's expression will tell more about their understanding of a specific topic we are working on than anything else.
**** I don't cancel the classes with one learner.
**** I keep my classes at affordable rates.
**** My time zone is Pacific (my 6am is 9am EST). Because of the time zone, unfortunately, I can not schedule a class earlier than 10 am Eastern Standard Time, and later than 3 pm China Time. I tend to reply to messages in the period between 10am PST and 10pm PST. If you don't get back from me in more than a day I will kindly ask you if possible to resend your message.
