수업 소개
Mindset Math is an 8-week journey designed to help all students, including those who are neurodivergent, develop a strong, positive mathematical mindset. Through engaging activities, puzzles, and real-life scenarios, students will learn to approach math with confidence, curiosity, and creativity. This course emphasizes the importance of a growth mindset, teaching that everyone can excel in math with the right attitude, effort, and supportive environment. Mindset Math aims to create an inclusive and supportive environment where all students, including those who are neurodivergent, can thrive. The course not only teaches math concepts but also empowers students with the confidence and strategies needed to approach any mathematical challenge. By the end of the course, students will have a solid foundation in both math skills and the mindset necessary for continued growth and success. Teaching Approach: • Interactive and Reflective: The course focuses on interactive discussions and reflective activities that encourage students to think deeply about their learning process. • Collaborative Learning: Students work together on activities and projects, fostering a supportive learning environment. • Positive Reinforcement: Emphasis on celebrating effort, persistence, and improvement rather than just correct answers

Hello! You can call me Mrs. Tiffany and I am so excited to impart my love for learning and knowledge . My classes are unique as I am and through experimentation, exploration, and investigation we can gain a deeper understanding of the world we live in which is essential for advancing knowledge and innovation in virtually every area of human endeavor. Since each learner is different, I use different learning styles to reach and inspire where making mistakes is part of the learning process. Learning can indeed be a challenge and to be able to overcome obstacles and setbacks we must learn perseverance and resilience.
As a self-taught learner with a deep love for math, science, English, foreign languages, and history, I've spent my life diving into a wide range of subjects. I believe that learning can happen anywhere and at any time, which is why I enjoy sharing the tools and strategies I’ve developed over the years with students of all ages.
While I welcome all learners, I specialize in working with neurodivergent students or those who thrive with different learning approaches. As someone who is neurodivergent myself and a parent to a neurodivergent child, I understand firsthand the unique challenges and strengths that come with thinking differently. My goal is to create a supportive, engaging, and flexible learning environment where every child feels empowered to explore and succeed in their own way.
In my classes, I emphasize practical, hands-on learning experiences and foster curiosity by showing how every subject connects to the real world. Whether we’re exploring math through everyday activities, unlocking the mysteries of science, diving into the intricacies of language, or exploring the richness of history, I focus on making learning fun, interactive, and meaningful by providing an extraordinary experience that utilizes multiple forms of media, hands on activities, as well as movement during lessons creating an interactive and engaging learning environment.
I love to teach and for 20+ years I have worked with people of all ages including young ones in the community including ones with disabilities on various topics such as the importance of oral health, English grammar and linguistics, Writing, History, Spanish, and Math. I have been homeschooling my son for the past 3+ years. There have been challenges along the way but by being flexible, adaptable, perseverant, and resilient, empathetic and creative we can be successful and this is my goal for learning and instructing.
1.5 semesters left to complete my studies in Computer Science with a track in Cybersecurity / Applied Mathematics dual degrees from Towson University.
2021 to present - I worked as a volunteer at the Hussmann Center for Adults with Autism, Institute for Well-Being Towson University and in addition I have received continuous training in understanding and supporting neurodivergent children and adults through the Kennedy Krieger Institute
2021 to present - I started my journey as a homeschool instructor.
10+ years as a self-taught learner of mathematics, history, science, English, foreign languages
Join me on a journey of discovery and growth, where each learner's unique perspective is valued and every subject becomes an adventure!
