Send us a textStruggling with math anxiety isn't just a childhood challenge—it's a widespread issue affecting many adults, and I'm no stranger to it myself. Join me as I sit down with Sabina Dallmeyer, a seasoned expert in tackling math anxiety, to uncover how this often-misunderstood fear can shape life choices and limit career paths. Through our conversation, we explore the powerful link between math anxiety and test anxiety, as well as the societal and educational pressures that perpetuate these fears. Sabina shares practical resources like math anxiety screeners, offering hope and strategies for anyone looking to address their anxieties and change their relationship with math.Our discussion doesn't stop at anxiety; we also navigate the broader implications of how math education is traditionally structured. From early academic tracking to cultural attitudes about math ability, we examine how these factors can limit opportunities and foster a culture where it's acceptable to shy away from math. Sabina and I delve into the life skills math education can cultivate, such as resilience and persistence, and how overcoming math anxiety can serve as a metaphor for facing life's most daunting challenges. With an emphasis on kindness, empathy, and the importance of continuous learning, this episode invites listeners to reconsider math as more than just numbers and equations, but as a path to personal growth and empowerment.#math #anxiety #tutorThis podcast is a proud member of the Mayday Media Network.

Welcome to Episode 45 of In Her Wallet Podcast! Today we're talking about math anxiety and how it can affect your personal finances. Data shows that 93% of Americans have math anxiety, however women are disproportionately affected by it. Turns out parents talk differently to boys and girls about money, which is responsible for shaping habits and expectations that can last a lifetime. Math anxiety is just a feeling of nervousness though, and in reality, you don't have to have an MBA in Finance to be financially successful.In this episode, our host Sofiia is joined by Michelle Robertson, a.k.a Ms. Money and Math. They discuss what math anxiety is, how it shows up in everyday life, the ways to fight it, and how we can raise a more confident generation of women going forward!*Watch this episode in video on YouTube**If you like this episode, support the show by leaving us a 5-star review, sharing on social media, or via Buy-Me-A-Coffee Link*Key takeaways:00:00 Welcome remarks02:29 Get to know Michelle a.k.a Ms. Money and Math05:32 What is math anxiety?07:30 Why women are more likely to experience it08:50 How math anxiety shows up in everyday life11:05 Calculating the tip percentage14:05 How to slowly build math confidence24:22 How to raise numbers-confident girls27:29 Money isn't about numbers, its about emotions29:38 What is financial freedom to you?30:46 Tips for women to achieve financial freedom34:03 Message from SofiiaEpisode resources:Ms. Money and Math InstagramMs. Money and Math WebsiteSupport the showThank you for listening!

Are you scared of math? Are numbers just not your thing? Well this does not mean you're automatically bad at money! If left unaddressed, math anxiety can end up shaping decisions you make further down the track and you might bury you head in the sand when it comes to your money. On today's episode we unpack math anxiety, how it plays out and what you can do about it. Acknowledgement of Country By Natarsha Bamblett aka Queen Acknowledgements.

For Dr. Tony Roberson, understanding data is NOT about being a math whiz; it's about developing intuition, and turning your curiosity about the real world into answerable questions and systematic answers.Join us for a very grassy episode from the man who's “in everyone's backyard,” as we get “into the weeds” about every psych major's (initially) least-favorite “weed-out class”: Statistics. Dr. Tony Roberson is an assistant professor in the school psychology specialist program and the combined clinical and school psychology doctoral program at the University of Houston-Clear Lake. He obtained his doctoral degree from Louisiana State University's school psychology program and currently holds credentials as a licensed psychologist (LP) and licensed specialist in school psychology (LSSP) in the state of Texas and as a nationally certified school psychologist (NCSP).Dr. Roberson has worked as a school psychologist full-time in Cypress-Fairbanks ISD, where he was involved in assessment, intervention, and consultation work with early childhood, elementary, and secondary students and staff. Beyond schools, he also has experience delivering a variety of services in clinic and residential treatment settings.His research interests and expertise broadly concern applied research methodology, data analysis, and improving school-based psychological and behavioral measurement practices to make data more useful for efficiently monitoring risk and wellbeing at both the student and systems levels (e.g., whole classroom, whole school). His current work focuses on refining positively-oriented behavior rating scales for universal screening to help reduce systemic barriers to accessing quality care and promote student behavioral and mental health more equitably across diverse and resource-limited school systems.When Dr. Roberson is not professing, he can likely be found watching an old movie or playing music. He never learned how to ride a bike but has grown to accept that with self-compassion and kindness.Honorable Mentions:-Quantitude podcast https://quantitudepod.org/ or on Apple https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/quantitude/id1484406501 -Dr. Andy Field's books on Discovering Statistics https://www.discoveringstatistics.com/books/discovering-statistics-using-r/-Discovr educational package for R (teach yourself to program!) https://www.discovr.rocks/discovr/ -Dr. James Guffey (Dr. Roberson's stats professor): https://jguffey.sites.truman.edu/ Welcome to The Psychologists Podcast, where we talk about all things psychology through a very personal lens.

Intro Sandra Balisky Author of the Framework Math Series has a Masters's in Teaching with a focus on Math, a double major in Math and English. Sandra has taught in 4 different school districts and 2 online schools, has tutored Math to students of all ages, and is passionate about creating Math resources. She is currently homeschooling her 4 children and appreciates their continual help with beta-testing Math activities. She created her content because of the overwhelming crisis of a nation crippled by Math Anxiety, her experience as a high school math teacher inspired her to create a Math program that was cohesive across their K-12 career. She also wanted to help students think about how numbers worked and give them the confidence to play with numbers and do things that made sense, rather than experiencing Math within the rigid confines of memorization and algorithms. Top three takeaways Math is awe-inspiring to see the fundamental pattern and logical, predictable structure that is woven throughout the fabric of our universe. Math is so much more than arithmetic - it's truly the language of the universe! How Sandra helps your children see the forest through the trees in Numberland and overcome, Math Anxiety through her work and program. Call to Action Framework Math Official Website What is Next!

This week, we are joined with our good friend and colleague, Dr. Val Zonnefeld, who teaches in the Dordt University Department of Mathematics. Her expertise is in math education, and she teaches multiple courses for the future teachers in our program–both math content, and math methods. We start this episode by sharing our own “math stories”: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Val has extensive knowledge from the research in math education as well as a ton of practical experience from her years teaching math in middle school, high school, and college classrooms. Throughout our conversation, Val shares lots of wisdom and ideas for teachers and parents alike in helping the kids in their lives wherever they are with mathematics–whether they feel the math anxiety (which is very real!) or if they are high-achieving “mathletes.” We hope this episode is an encouragement for you! In the episode, Val mentions the book Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, by Peter Liljedahl and recommends this one for teachers. You can find it on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/Building-Thinking-Classrooms-Mathematics-Grades/dp/1544374836 Dave also brings up a fascinating tool called WolframAlpha, which is an A.I. computational knowledge engine. It is worth checking this one out, and you can access it for free here: https://www.wolframalpha.com/

In this episode of Room to Grow, Curtis and Joanie welcome Juliana Tapper, Math Intervention Specialist and Founder of CollaboratEd Consulting. We start by apologizing for mispronouncing Juliana's last name when she is introduced at the start of the podcast! Please note that her last name is Tapper, rather than Trapper. We are so sorry, Juliana! Juliana brings her experience teaching and supporting middle and high school math teachers and math interventionists to help us consider ways to break what she calls the “struggle stigma” in math class. She grounds our conversation with powerful results from research around math anxiety, which suggest that math anxiety activates the same fear centers in the brain as seeing a snake! When teachers use this understanding, we can create more effective responses to students who are experiencing math anxiety in our classes.Along with Juliana, your hosts discuss the importance of establishing a classroom culture that makes space all the “mathematical baggage” that students might bring with them. Providing the opportunity to talk about past experiences, positive and negative, allows students to understand that our classroom is a safe and welcoming place, where struggle becomes a normal and expected part of the learning process. Juliana has some practical tips for using instructional protocols with no math to build that classroom culture. She also shares how she established participation as an expectation rather than an option, and how those expectations along with appropriate scaffolds create small successes for students to build on.We know you'll walk away with some great ideas that will help you better reach more students in your classroom.We encourage you to explore these resources, mentioned and referenced in this episode:Juliana's website with resources and much more information about supporting students in math www.Collaboratedconsulting.org, or email Juliana directly at juliana@collaboratedconsulting.org.The youcubed® article Valuing Difference and Growth Juliana refers to the findings in this paper about how math anxiety lights up the same centers of the brain as physical fear such as seeing a snake.Juliana mentioned this The Dismantling Racism in Mathematics Instruction Course from Student Achievement Partners; the third course of the series will be available in the fall and you can take it without having taken the first two.Juliana suggested this Good Groupwork activity for helping to build a classroom culture that supports all students' learning from youcubed.®Did you enjoy this episode of Room to Grow?
