I employ Problem-Based Learning (PBL) as a teaching method in my math classes. PBL engages students through real-world problems that require mathematical reasoning and problem-solving skills. By connecting mathematical concepts to practical applications, students actively participate in their learning process and gain a deeper understanding of math.

During PBL sessions, I introduce challenging problems or real-world scenarios to students. I facilitate discussions, encourage brainstorming, and guide them through the problem-solving process. Students collaborate, share strategies, and justify their reasoning, fostering critical thinking skills.

In my teaching experience, I have taught math courses, provided individualized instruction, and conducted workshops. I tailored instruction to diverse student backgrounds and needs, reinforcing key concepts and addressing misconceptions. Utilizing technology and interactive resources, I enhanced learning through visualization and hands-on activities.

By integrating problem-based learning and drawing on my teaching experience, I create an engaging environment where students develop mathematical understanding, critical thinking, and enjoyment of the subject.
