Conceptual Math for Struggling Young Learners Years K-5

A partir de 33.08 $ /h

This class is designed for students from kindergarten through year 5 who find the fundamentals of math difficult to understand. Around year two, students begin to make the jump from learning to count to actually making numbers. This course will help students navigate this jump as we will understand how numbers are composed and how they grow. We will identify patterns, breaking numbers apart and reassembling them in new configurations. This course is designed to slow down the learning process and use play to understand the inner-workings of math. Conceptual math moves away from memorization and instead engages the ideas behind addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division so that the student can forge and deeper and longer lasting connection to arithmetic.

Acerca de mí

I am a graduating masters student completing the Human Geography and Urban Studies program at the London School of Economics. As a published writer I have a background in journalism, academic, investigative, and creative writing. With an academic background in human geography as well as anthropology I am well equipped to support students in english, geography, and history. I also have an undergraduate degree in French Studies and spent a semester interning at the non-profit organization SOS Racisme in Paris, France.

One on one tutoring and teacher attention has been an essential component of my academic journey. My own struggles have inspired my approach to tutoring as I use a scaffolding approach to distill larger concepts into more manageable pieces. I am particularly influenced by my high school's pedagogy to support students to "learn how to think"; to support students in finding their own unique ways of approaching a subject and to foster critical thinking skills.

Formación

I received distinction from the London School of Economics's Msc Human Geography and Urban studies program. Before that I attended Wesleyan University in Middletown, CT USA where I earned an honors degree in Anthropology & French Studies (GPA: 3.54).
