Today we speak with Nancy from St. Louis. Nancy is a math specialist at her school and is frustrated with an ineffective model of supporting students in need. You’ll hear how she wants a better plan to help the students she works with and together we help her realize what she can influence and how she can proceed to help make change. 

This is another  Math Mentoring Moment episode where we talk with a member of the Math Moment Maker Community who is working through struggles and together we brainstorm possible next steps and strategies to overcome them.

You’ll Learn: 

  • How to help teachers make small changes; 
  • How to get your ideas heard when it’s hard; 
  • How to spark change with your fellow educators;
  • The importance of nudging without overwhelming.
