with YOUR Raven Math Technologist, Steve Duby
Do your students struggle with topics in math? Are you challenged as a parent when it comes to math instruction? Does math as a topic cause undue stress, anxiety, or bring up past trauma? If any of those things are true for you, you've come to the right place! Raven is committed to assisting those families in need of this critical intervention for the benefit of student learning, parent instruction, and the overall enjoyment of math. As your guide, my aim is to provide support for K-12 mathematics topics through services such as in-person or remote tutoring, workshop-style events, and family consultations.

The Ice Dream ice cream shop has 10 flavors of ice cream. How many different two-scoop ice cream cones can you make? What if there were 11 flavors? What if there were 12 flavors? What if it were 20 flavors? What if each cone had at most three scoops?
