Ally, Canada, Primary, Grade 5

Teaching for 16 years ... Love, love, love family & friends. I love good food, a good wine ... & good(!) music. I adore sharing stories, laughter, knowledge & experience ... There's so much to know & learn! I relish a good giggle. I am obsessed with people watching, fashion & architecture. Experiencing travel & art, setting goals & taking risks are important to me ... live, laugh, love ...

A Fly on the Classroom Wall
Teaching can truly be, and quite often is, an amazing experience. Welcome!

This blog is for ....
This blog is in response to those parents who have so often walked into my classroom and said (in passing): "You know ... I don't know how you do it. I really wish that I could be a fly on your classroom wall ..."

This blog is for those who are looking for support and advice ... Who believe in creating a partnership between home and school ....

I am starting this blog to fill what I now assume to be a gap in the system ... It is in response to the questions that I get asked every day of every year by parents: the parents who have often wished to be "a fly on my classroom wall".

Every week I get asked some pretty great questions ... questions that deserve honest, direct, immediate answers ... answers which are more often than not a simple mixture of common sense, experience and education ... and often in that very order ...

And so ... welcome ...

PS Please be aware that my opinions on each matter are just that: "My Opinions" ... Well, my experienced, educated opinions .. no more and no less. ... They are from the person who spends each and every day with your children, my students, as I mentor, and we learn from one another ...

Zeina Nehme, Lebanon, Higher, Mathematics

I am a faculty member in the mathematics department at two American Universities in Lebanon, while pursuing my Ed.D. at St Louis University, in the US.

In 2004, I taught mathematics and Arabic language, face-to-face and online in the small rural and remote villages of Northwest Alaska. In Fairbanks, I was a research scholar, conducting research on distance education and providing training to faculty members on the effective use of technology in teaching.

Concerning technology, I have been using Blackboard, Elluminate Live, blogs and wikis. I received many certificates on distance education, and became a Certified Online Instructor (COI) and published few articles as well.

From 2007 to 2009, I lived in Saudi Arabia and taught mathematics to Saudi female students in a private American University. In addition, I was an active member in the Professional Development committee on campus.

Applications of Linear Algebra
The Linear Algebra course is based on the idea of matrices. The applications of matrices in this course seem abstract, dry and difficult to understand. Hence, I created a Blog and asked students to find real life use of matrices, which I think, will make the course a bit more enjoyable, fun and the blog might entice the learning process.
