This class is ideal for students who need cohesive math content based on their individual skill levels. It would replace a traditional math class. I have several curriculums for families to choose from, or I can use a family-specified curriculum if the materials are provided. Students will receive homework and in-class informal and formal assessments. I have curriculum materials for the following grade levels: 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th (Pre Algebra), Algebra 1. All curriculums are comprehensive and cover the needed skills such as fractions, decimals, rates, proportions, solving equations, working with variables, etc. My teaching philosophy is the following: 1. All students can learn and master math 2. Students learn in different ways. 3. Math is best learned in a flexible and nonstressful environment 4. The brain is visual, so math should be visual too 5. Students should be allowed to use support materials (like calculators) to keep focus on the problem solving and critical thinking aspects of math. Please note this class is by request only.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Missouri Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Master's Degree in Mathematics from Drury University
I am a non traditional teacher, no lectures here!
Instead my classes focus on being:
*Student Centered- they lead the pace
*Critical Thinking -complex tasks are given that may be a bit unusual but will cause students to think deeply
*Problem Solving- word problems to keep concepts in context
*Focus on discovering patterns- patterns is the basis of the study of algebra and higher levels of math thinking
*Students create their understanding versus being told what to think
I am constantly learning how to become a better math teacher! I have a Master's degree in Math Education but I don't believe that means I know everything. In fact I am constantly reading about the brain, and the best ways to teach math. I also am constantly evaluating my classes and content and making changes based on how learners interact with the material.
I have 13 years of experience in Education, and have taught math at all levels including adults.

In my down time, I love hanging with my husband, and two girls. We love to read books, play games and do math together (of course:)
