I love making Math easy, accessible and fun! I'll show examples, invited learners to share what they already know, address common misconceptions while taking questions and then move the class onto working on a group activity together, a worksheet or an interactive game. Learners will be able to work together on questions and in teams and have plenty of fun along the way! If you like healthy competition, fun and want to improve your basic Math toolkit, join us for a week of Math Boot Camp! The topics covered were chosen with the aim of supporting learners in becoming proficient in the most useful basics and boosting the learners' confidence.
Learning Goals
