  • A fascinating listen!

    I love this podcast, I started listening when my friend Asyia was featured on it and haven’t stopped listening ever since.

My experience learning math at school was not good, I had a math teacher who herself did not seem interested in teaching math so I would like my children to get some of the exciting new teaching that is described on some of the episodes, I live... more

  • Wonderful

    Every teacher, every school board member, every principal, every parent should listen to every episode. Some hard and necessary truths lie within: learning is tough, practice is necessary, and hard work pays off through the joy of mastery. We do children a disservice when we try to shield them from every minor discomfort. I wish I had understood these things as a kid.
