Middle School Math Teacher

The Specialty Math Teacher guides students in grades 6 through 8 through a rich and developmentally attuned journey in mathematics, cultivating clarity of thinking, perseverance, and confidence. Through thoughtfully prepared and engaging lessons, the teacher carries a coherent scope and sequence that supports each student’s growing capacity for abstract reasoning while remaining responsive to individual learning needs in collaboration with the learning support team.
