...math has always come easy to me, I also appreciate how it can be quite the opposite for many others, and try to approach teaching it from their perspective, and to find the best way for them to connect to the material and come to their own understanding, and hopefully an appreciation of the concepts and wonder behind it all. I studied Math in my undergraduate school, where I also double majored in Theater. This...

...teaching styles. Therefore, they may assume that a student remembers a specific concept, and rather than going over said concept, they hastily build upon misunderstood fundamentals. When I was in university, I understand that maths can be challenging for a lot of people because teacher and professors may explain math as if they are talking to other mathematicians. Teachers often do not realized that their students are new to math and are not yet scholars....

...that are inclusive of multiple perspectives and lived experiences. Through this viewpoint, I work towards becoming supportive, culturally aware, and a better communicator with every teaching interaction. This might resemble hosting one-on-one appointments for students who have conflicting schedules or affording assignment extensions for students with extenuating circumstances.
