Reviews and comments on professional development with Compassionate Math:

  • “Throughout all sessions, I felt incredibly seen & heard, not only when sharing challenges or highlights, but also when discussing & brainstorming, especially when there is a need for background knowledge we have been afforded that opportunity.”
  • “I felt like the presenter was very educated and made me think different about different approaches to teaching math.”
  • “In 2 sessions, my coteacher and I walk away with techniques to transfer the class to the students. I went from being a talking head to a facilitator. I am hopeful that test scores will reflect up due to increase work completion.”
  • “I have felt motivated to return to my passions & roots from studying pedagogy. Loving returning to inquiry-based teaching, even in a content I am not well-versed in.”
  • “After this workshop, we as a whole I think have acknowledge the trauma and I am back to taking steps as an ‘actual’ math teacher. I am looking to be creative and engage with my students in new ways that motivate them.”
  • “I am really focusing on transferring power and control to my students. We have seen with the transfer of power and control a strong increase if in-class work completion. Thank you so much.”
