Hi, I'm Mona!

I’m on a mission to empower  teachers, like you, to develop a classroom where everyone will love & understand math (even if you believe you’re not a “math person”). 

You’re in the right place if: 

  • you’re tired of watching students say “I’m not a math person” 
  • you’re exhausted from fighting students to do the hard problems
  • you want your students to believe in themselves

That’s why I created the Empowered Math Method. To end the blank stares and frustrated students and empower students and teachers to love and understand math.

This isn’t just another thing to do… it’s the WAY we learn math.

Tune in each week to the  Honest Math Chat Podcast as our unofficial meeting of the movement. Ideas to inspire you and your students to explore math, problem solve, and talk about it in a safe & welcoming math community.

Imagine if every students' favorite part of the day was math.

You can have a math classroom that is engaging and student-led  where all children conceptually understand & achieve math proficiency. 

It all starts with your Math Classroom Culture

Imagine if you could…

  • Help every child love a math challenge. 
  • Develop a classroom where students have ownership over their math learning. 
  • Push students to more than they ever thought possible in math. 

I can help you get started creating a classroom community of math learners!
