About

 

I aim to provide educators with research-based strategies to assess and support learners facing challenges with mathematical concepts, ensuring success. This aligns with the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers (APSTs), particularly Standard 1.5 (Differentiate teaching to meet the specific learning needs of students across the full range of abilities) and Standard 4.1 (Support student participation and engagement) (Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership, 2017).
