You don’t have to do maths alone 🌻

Co-mathsing is my relaxed, interactive maths support session - somewhere to get started, ask questions, work things through and have me there if you need some help, encouragement or feedback 😊

Before the session, I'll send you a Bitpaper link, where you can paste any maths questions you or your child have, or anything you’d like to work on. Then we can work through it together step by step - from KS2 right up to GCSE / Functional Skills.

If you already have a Bitpaper from one of my groups, you can use the session as some scheduled time to carry on working on it, knowing I’m there if you get stuck or want some feedback ✏️

We don't need cameras or microphones, so you can work on your own Bitpaper (which I can see and give feedback on), ask questions in the text chat and get involved as much or as little as you like.

For some learners, the hardest part is simply getting started. Having a set time, a friendly space and someone there if you get stuck can make taking that first step feel a bit easier 😊

🕒 Monday 3pm
🕓 Wednesday 4pm
🕑 Thursday 2pm

£6.50 drop-in or £25 for 5 weeks 🌈

Co-mathsing is also included (but always optional) in my small group bundles, and is available through my adults’ community memberships.

If you’re wondering whether Co-mathsing might work for you or your child, please feel free to ask me any questions! 💬🌻

When a learner is struggling, where do we look for the problem?

Quite often, we look at the learner.

Do they need more confidence?

More resilience?

More motivation?

More practice?

But what if we looked at what's happening around them too?

Is the group too big?

Are they feeling pressured to answer before they've had time to think?

Can they ask for something to be explained differently?

Do they feel able to say when they don't understand?

And are we sometimes mistaking a mismatch between the learner and their environment for a lack of ability?

I think we can spend a lot of time teaching children how to adapt to environments that just aren't working for them. And this takes up energy that could be spent on teaching and learning.

What if we spent a bit more time asking:

“What could we change here to make learning easier?”

That's something I think about a lot in my maths classes.

Because struggling with something doesn't mean you aren't capable of learning it.

And sometimes, the learner doesn't need to change.

The environment does 🌈

I think we might be measuring “good at maths” in some slightly odd ways... 😆

Is it getting the answer really quickly?

Never seeming to make mistakes?

Remembering a method and reproducing it perfectly in a test?

Being the first person with their hand up?

These things can be useful.

But they're not really the things I'm most interested in!

I want learners to be able to stop and think.

To have a go, even when they're not sure.

To notice and correct mistakes.

To change their mind halfway through.

To ask “why?”

And to say “I don't understand this” without feeling like it's something to be ashamed of.

And yes – I still want them to learn the maths! 😆

I care about understanding. I care about accuracy. I care about making progress.

I just don't think you have to be fast or get everything right to be good at maths.

Actually, the pressure to do these things can often make learning harder.

So maybe that's what I mean when I say I don't really want my learners to be “good at maths”.

I want them to come away thinking:

“I can figure this out.”

And to be honest, I'd take that over just being the quickest person in the room any day. 🎉

What does “being good at maths” mean to you? 😊

🌻 If you've been waiting for a reply from me…
I haven't forgotten you!

Life has been a bit much lately and I'm also not feeling completely well, so I'm taking things a little more slowly than usual.

I know I have messages waiting for me, and I'm working my way through them 🌈

So if you've messaged me recently, please bear with me - I'll be in touch as soon as I can.

And a little reminder that my maths groups restart on Wednesday 16th September! 🧮🌻

I'm really looking forward to getting back into our maths-y routine, even if I'm having to ease myself back into things gently too.

And if you're thinking about joining a group, please do still feel free to get in touch! I'll get back to you as soon as I can 😊

Thank you for your patience and understanding. It really does mean a lot 💜

🧮 One final real-world maths question for August! 😁

It's August 29th at 7:30am and I'm already at 98.1 miles in my 100-mile August challenge for Macmillan Cancer Support! 🎉

Just 1.9 miles to go to reach my original target…

But here's my question:

How far do you think I'll have walked by the end of August? 🤔

Not just whether I'll make 100 miles – can you predict my final total? 😊

You could think about:

👣 How far I've walked so far
📅 How many days are left
🧮 My average daily walking so far
📈 Whether my walking has changed during the month
🧠 What you've learnt about my motivation from my previous posts!

Or you might have some completely different ideas – I'd love to hear them!

As usual with real-world maths, there are loads of different ways you could tackle this! 🌈

💬 Pop your prediction in the comments – and I'd love to know how you worked it out too!

🎁 I've also got a little something special planned for everyone who joins in with this final challenge… 🌻

I'll reveal what it is, along with my own maths and reasoning after the end of August! And we'll find out how far I actually walked 👀🧮

And if you've been following along with my 100-mile challenge this month – thank you! 💜 Your comments, encouragement, shares and support have made it even more fun.

So… what's your prediction? 🤔🧮🌻

You don’t have to figure out the maths stuff alone 🌻

Whether you’re supporting a child with maths, home educating, returning to maths yourself, or wishing you felt a bit more positive and confident…

Sometimes it helps to have somewhere to ask questions!

Somewhere where you don’t have to pretend you already know the answer 😊

Somewhere you can say “I really don’t understand this!” without judgement 😅

That’s what I’m aiming to create with the new MathsPositive adults’ community 🌈

A friendly, neuro-affirming space for maths questions, encouragement, resources, discussion and a bit of Co-mathsing!

There’ll be a monthly evening Co-mathsing session as part of the £9/month membership, with a £29/month option for unlimited Co-mathsing sessions for you or your child 😊

There are limited spaces available while I shape the community and work out what would be most useful for everyone.

And this is where I’d love your help! 🌈

What would you like to see in a MathsPositive community?

What do you find difficult when it comes to maths?
What kind of support would be useful?
What would make you think, “Ooh, I’d like to be part of that!”? 🤔

You can comment below, send me a message, or just drop me a 🌻 if you’d like to hear more.

I’d love for this to become a little corner of the internet where maths feels more comfortable and supported 🙌🏻🎉

Some days, you’re just a bit Blue 🐱😂

My summer group classes have finished, which means I should have a bit more breathing space…

Except there’s still admin. And messages (apologies if you're waiting, I'm getting through them as quickly as possible) 😅

And today I’m not quite feeling 100%.

So I think I’m taking Blue’s approach and having a slower day, doing things in short bursts.

Sometimes we don’t have the energy to be productive, enthusiastic and “on”, and I think that’s okay.

What animal represents your energy today? 😆🌻

Co-mathsing? 🤔 What’s that?

These relaxed, online, interactive maths support sessions offer encouragement, feedback and a little scheduled time to keep us all moving forward with our maths 🙌🏻

When you sign up, I’ll send you a Bitpaper link where you can copy/paste or write any questions you or your child have, or anything you’d like to work on, from KS2 right up to GCSE / Functional Skills.

Then we can work through them together, step by step.

If you already have a Bitpaper from one of my groups, the session can provide some scheduled time to carry on working, knowing I’m there to offer help and feedback when needed ✏️

For some learners, having a set time and a friendly space to get started can make it much easier to actually get going, especially when maths feels tricky or overwhelming.

I love creating spaces that are safe, supportive, and maybe even a little bit fun! 😆🎉

🕒 Monday – 3pm
🕓 Wednesday – 4pm
🕑 Thursday – 2pm

Drop in for as long as you like 😊

A weekly Co-mathsing session is included (but always optional) in my small group bundles 🌈

Co-mathsing is also available through my new adults’ Ko-fi memberships, starting from £9/month 😊

I’ll share more about the different membership options soon!

Got questions? Feel free to comment or send me a message, I'd love to help! 🌻
