If you want to feel confident teaching math, you're in the right place.

After years of feeling like a “math avoider” I discovered how to engage my students and helped me fall in love with teaching math. 

I can confidently say, I love teaching math... and you can too.

Hi, I'm Mona.

I am a former Chicago Public Schools teacher of 15 years. I’ve PLC teams and supported the growth of a student centered math program. I also served as a school based math coach where I led professional development, coached teachers and lead lesson study. 

Disheartened with the lack of support and quality professional development for K-8 teachers that work with students below grade level, I founded Chicago Math Group in 2023 and have provided high quality PD and coaching for schools and districts to increase student engagement and outcomes in mathematics with staggering success.

My work has been published on MiddleWeb.com, and I am an in demand presenter at national and state conferences including NCTM, ISTM, and more. For references, please contact mona@monamath.com. I look forward to bringing my passion and expertise to your school or district!

I’m also a mom, wife to my partner in all things DIY and obsessed with local coffee shops.
I grew up fishing and swimming the best little lake in Michigan, but found my home in the lively city when I moved to Chicago 16 years ago. 

I can help you stop feeling overwhelmed and start engaging every student, even those students that struggle.
