HCTM organizes multiple conferences and events throughout the academic year that provides professional learning opportunities for in-service and pre-service mathematics teachers. Join in on professional conversations and presentations about the teaching and learning of K–12 mathematics from knowledgeable, and experienced mathematics educators from around the state of Hawai‘i and the US!
We are especially looking for classroom teachers who are doing creative and innovative lessons and activities that increase student motivation and understanding to present at our conferences.
Contact us if you would are interested in being a presenter* at a future conference or webinar.
*If approved, out-of-State presenters must provide their own travel and lodging expenses for in-person conferences and should have preferably attended (or will attend) one of our past (or future) events so that they may have a better understanding of our values and conference styles and fit our organization's mission and vision. Priority will be given to local educators.
