Making Math More Possible

Hello! I'm Karina Wilbur, and I have been working with middle school math students for the past few months to make their math difficulties a little less difficult. My plan for the year was to work with the students to find their most common struggles and see which methods best helped them. Then, I was going to make a website showing a variety of solutions to those common problems. Unfortunately, I did not get many chances to work with the students before the school closed due to the coronavirus crisis and could not complete this part. I still value the time I got to spend working with the students and I believe I was still able to make a positive impact on the classroom.

Math is a subject I have always been passionate about, and I always want to share the things I am passionate about. It breaks my heart a little to know that math is so many people's least favorite subject, and that some even come to dread their math classes. My mission is to make math less scary, and, hopefully, actually enjoyable for more people. This is why I have decided to make a project out of my passion, making math a more approachable subject to make others happy and share what I love.
