Ive always been really good at math and I want others to not only understand what they are doing but being able to help others around them understand what they are doing. Math is something thats always going to be with us so I want to make lessons that are targeting the areas of math that they need help in, I want to be able to help them understand and grow from their mistakes that they make in math. i want to do some online work with either chats or a web call whenever available, i also want to send them different worksheets that i will personally pick so that they are able to do the work. making sure that they show their work so that they know not only how they find the answer but they can use their work so that they can apply it to other problems. I also want kids to be able to express themselves in their math problems. I find it easier for kids to be able to concentrate on math more if it was something that they were able to understand and something that they know/interact with in their everyday life. As a student myself, I find it harder to understand problems that are about something that I don't want to learn about or something that I don't personally care to talk about. I want my students to be able to know what they are talking about while doing math. However, I understand that not all problems are going to be according to their interests but this is a way that we can make math more fun for them to focus on.
