So, I don’t even teach Math, but I love this podcast. Listen to it I the car while on autopilot to do some brain exercises in my head.

2. I’m SO impressed with how much science there actually is to learning Math.
3. Can I please go back to 2nd grade and learn Math from someone who learned from Mona?
Empowering, engaging and fantastic 🩷🩷. So glad I found this podcast!!
Mona is so easy to listen to and talks in a way that brings you right on the journey with her. Quick tidbits to engage educators in thoughtful reflection and the constant reminder that you don’t have to be an expert but can find comfort in doing what is manageable. These simple changes and adjustments to practices have impact.
I recently found Mona’s podcast and have been devouring precious episodes this summer. Every single episode is packed with inspirational take aways that I feel equipped to use with my own students. I love her passion for making math joyful and teaching it in a way that differs so much from the negative experiences I had learning math as a student! Mona is so talented! I am grateful for the chance to glean from her knowledge as I follow along with her here each week!
I LOVE learning new strategies, activities, and ideas that will help me make my math lessons come alive for my students. Mona has a very engaging way of sharing that makes the listener want to explore more. Coming from the heart of a former math scaredy-cat, this podcast has helped me become more confident in designing math experiences for my third graders.
