Misconceptions About Teaching Students Who Struggle With Math

Do you have students who struggle with math in your classroom? How can we get them to take the earbuds out and actually put in effort in our classes? On today’s episode we talk to Juliana Tapper from CollaboratEd and cover misconceptions about teaching students who struggle with math plus get some actionable tips about how to get these students more engaged. 

Juliana taught Algebra 1 and Math Intervention at high schools in South Central Los Angeles, East San Jose, and Denver - and had a 3 years stint as a district math coach and TOSA - before leaving the classroom in 2018 to provide PD for schools and districts that teachers actually can’t wait to implement.

 

You’ll Learn: 

  • Why spending time on classroom culture and community ISN’T a waste of time;
  • Why grading practices have a great impact on outcomes for struggling learners than you may realize; and,
  • Actionable tips about how to get students who struggle engaged.
