Alex has a primary teaching background and is passionate about building learning cultures where every learner sees themselves as capable across the curriculum. As a formerly maths-anxious practitioner, discovering number talks played a key role in her transition from struggling with maths instruction to thriving with it.
Alex now works to share the joys of number talks and other pedagogical approaches with others who are looking for ways to support conceptual understanding in number and to foster positive student relationships with maths.
