While the Get More Math team appreciates teachers on a daily basis, this week is special. It’s Teacher Appreciation Week and we’ve been highlighting some GMM super users across the country who are using our math practice software to help their students make meaningful increases in concept mastery and long-term retention.
Here are some of our previous teacher profiles:
- Monday: Linda Yahr from Owen J. Roberts Middle School
- Tuesday: April O’Dell from Dover Elementary School
- Wednesday: Melissa Nolt from Manheim Central Middle School
Today, let’s head over to Everett High School to meet math teacher Jessica Volbrecht. Jessica is a Drexel University and Elizabethtown College graduate and has been teaching math for 16 years.
Thursday: Teacher of the Day!
