Why is teaching maths important to you?

“Mathematical concepts continue to amaze me even after 30 years of teaching to many ages and stages. There is certainty in Mathematics, but also infinity. There are patterns and predictability but then also surprises. I enjoy the challenge of helping students understand. It sounds corny, but every time a light comes on, a learning moment, I feel so happy.”

Andrew Trost

Melrose High School, ACT

Why is teaching maths important to you?

“In my experience, mathematics is the one subject that many, many people truly believe that they simply cannot possibly learn. By showing that they can in fact learn some mathematics, not only do they learn some content, but they are compelled to view more positively their ability to learn in general.”

Joel Thomas

Why is teaching maths important to you?

“We can’t see the creator, but we can see evidence of His power and glory in the creation, the basis of which is mathematics.”
