My Project

What I love most about my students is their curiosity, resilience, and the joy they bring to learning—even when the material is challenging. Each student brings a unique perspective to the classroom, and I’m constantly inspired by their willingness to try, ask questions, and support one another. They remind me every day that learning is a journey, and I’m honored to be a part of theirs.

Math manipulatives are powerful tools that can make a real difference for my students.

They help make abstract concepts concrete and accessible, especially for visual and kinesthetic learners. By giving students a chance to “see” and “touch” math, I am helping them make deeper connections and develop stronger problem-solving skills—something they can carry with them far beyond the classroom.
