Math Path Level 5 - A Foundational Math Class (Ages 12-16)

Students will learn foundational math skills to increase success and understanding of future math concepts. 

I am a homeschooling mom of five kids, ranging in age from ten to nineteen. We are diving into our 6th year of homeschool and we love it. I have a passion for both education and creativity and I love combining the two whenever I can. When I'm not teaching (my kids or someone else's), I run a business based purely on creativity and art. 

Traveling (and 8 years of formal classes) gave me a handle on the Spanish language. I have a background in general education from 19 years of combined experience teaching in public and charter school settings, as well as tutoring one on one, ESL, and running various camps and activities. My experience ranges from childcare (infant) age all the way through high school age and includes work with neurodiverse and special needs students, as well as students with mental health issues.

I have a passion for, and educational background in Graphic Art/Design, however, my degrees are AA in Liberal Studies and a BA in General Studies with a concentration in Psychology. I am also TESOL certified. 

Homework will be assigned each week so that students can review and practice the skills that were learned in that week's class. This homework should take approximately 15-30 minutes total and will (most of the time) come in the form of a worksheet that I will provide. If it is not a worksheet, it will be a creative assignment that will not require specific supplies.

If students have questions regarding the homework, I encourage them to post in our classroom or message me directly, so that I can provide an explanation. I like my students to know that I am reachable through the platform outside of our scheduled class time. 

While I will offer feedback on homework, I do not provide letter grades. At the end of the 13-weeks, I will provide a feedback card that will include whether a student needs work, has emerging skills, or has skill mastery of each of the skills taught. Students will also receive a certificate of completion.

35 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
