ARE JOY-FILLED EXPLORATIONS
that spark curiosity, create a sense of wonder, and invite kids to experience math in exciting new ways.
Traditional math teaching often leaves girls feeling anxious and uninspired, afraid to make mistakes, and convinced they’re bad at math.
In Artful Math camps and math circles, girls learn math through patterns and discovery, not by memorizing rules. Exploration, imagination, and play give girls meaningful new ways to think about math and apply it to their world.
Some of the ingredients in our secret sauce are:
Real-world projects ignite girls’ imagination and put math in context
Games with friends help girls improve math skills
Intriguing puzzles build persistence and critical thinking
Hands-on explorations lead girls to discover math rules on their own
BFF community creates confidence and growth mindset in math

She’s a pretty passionate gal, so make sure you’ve got some time on your hands before you ask a question like, “So why do you think girls learn math differently?”
Her superpower is the ability to destroy math anxiety and make any girl fall in love with math.
