Back in 2020, math teacher (with math trauma) Kylie Fraser found herself in Vanessa's Math Therapy session at the Mighty Peace Teachers Convention in Grand Prairie, Alberta and was stunned how much she saw of herself in Vanessa's story.
Flash forward to earlier this month when Vanessa returned to Grand Prairie to deliver the keynote, and 30 minutes before hitting the stage they reunited and impulsively decided to record this convo about what Kylie has been up to in her math journey in the last 6 years!
They discussed:
- the math trauma Kylie saw in herself and her students and what she did about it
- how language around math influences our self-worth
- how to heal from math trauma through shared stories
On that note - if you know someone that should hear this story, share it!
