Teachers who engaged in our workshops have said:

“This session gave us the opportunity to venture out of the narrow and limited context in which we see the teaching practice, especially for the subject of mathematics.”

“It helped me understand how students understand mathematical ideas in a concrete way and how their understanding itself can influence and inspire the lesson. It made even more obvious how pupils need to go from concrete, to pictorial, to abstract in order to master mathematical ideas and how the ones that did, demonstrated higher order thinking and “out of the box” explanations.”

“Yes, these activities helped me know in depth about the students. It helped to support the mathematical learning of students who have disability in classrooms. It helped to see the issues of different situation from different point of view.”

“I realized that teachers need to know the mathematical concepts very well so they can find alternative ways to explain various concepts. Some things which are obvious and can be easily explained to the students (without special needs) can be very difficult for students with special needs.”
