Strong math instincts start with how a child first encounters multiplication, fractions, and place value — not just whether they get the right answer. Ava uses her education background to identify where a concept broke down and re-teaches it using concrete examples, visual models, and hands-on reasoning before moving to abstract rules.

Kathleen
BA Washington University in St. Louis
