Meet the Math Specialist Behind Maths Advice On Your Device

Teaching was becoming more than just preparing lectures for the next day. I realized I needed the time and headspace to 'see' my students and to truly connect with them. It became clear I couldn't do both, lecture preparation and deep student engagement, effectively. So, I decided to prioritize 'seeing' my students, focusing class time on analyzing math problems instead of traditional lecturing. That's when the idea of the flipped classroom model clicked. I could share a video with my class before the lesson, freeing up valuable in-class time for problem-solving and answering questions about the video content. This approach transformed my classroom, and it's the core principle behind this platform.

My Philosophy: Active Learning for True Mastery

My philosophy is simple: math isn't about memorization; it's about understanding. Just like building strength at the gym requires active 'lifting,' true math mastery comes from hands-on practice. That's why our approach prioritizes step-by-step clarity, visual learning, and ample opportunities to 'do' the math yourself. We blend engaging video lessons with practical exercises and real-world applications to ensure every concept sticks
