Young teacher uses innovative way to teach multiplication

It's not about being the best, it's about trying your best.

The amount of resources available to students these days when it comes to subjects like Mathematics is bountiful. 

From experts sharing tips on social media to apps that help tutor kids on their smart devices. Books aren't the only way of learning anymore. 

But, there's something that outlasts technology and will always be the leading reason for kids having passion for learning. Teachers...

One teacher (we think she is a teacher because she posts some videos about studying something else) gained a lot of traction for a video on social media that showed a method of doing multiplication. 

This method isn't new, so, it wasn't so much what she was showing them but the passion she shared while teaching them this method. 

Someone commented on TikTok after watching one of her previous math videos, that they were "dribbled" after trying her method. So, in response to that she did the sum: 724x229.

One thing is for certain in any profession, when you are passionate about something it shows. If she isn't a teacher then we suggest she become one because she is great with the students.
