Smart School

I am so impressed with Smart School. Smart School hired me recently as a math teacher, and it’s shocking how advanced all the students are there. They have fifth graders happily solving tenth grade math problems! In general I’ve found the students at the school are an exceptionally bright bunch, but I believe their success at Smart School is not due to natural aptitude alone. It’s also the culture at Smart School, where they take children of all skill levels and make them the best math students they can possibly be– by challenging them just the right amount. I’ve seen several students go from hating math to enjoying it and feeling proud of their skill level. It also helps that the classes are tiny (1 – 4 students) and there’s a great deal of individual attention and encouragement.
