The Math Shop at 17勛圖 is committed to every student’s academic success and growth in mathematics. Through our drop-in, course-based tutoring model, we foster a supportive and intellectually rigorous learning environment that creates independent, lifelong learners of mathematics. We empower our students to develop deep conceptual understanding, critical thinking skills, and mathematical confidence through collaborative, student-centered tutoring.
In addition, the Math Shop serves as a professional development space for our undergraduate and graduate tutors, providing meaningful opportunities to cultivate their communication, leadership, and teamwork skills in addition to enriching their own mathematical knowledge and pedagogical practices.
Accountability – Each individual engaged in student support is responsible for their assignments and will do their job to the best of their abilities.
Respect - We respect students, instructors, and the people around us. We value the abilities of all students, recognizing that we all come from different mathematical backgrounds.
Support - We provide an open, accessible, and supportive learning environment for students.
Communication - We communicate effectively with students and co-workers, and we help students learn to communicate mathematics effectively.
Mastery - We continue to learn and work toward content mastery and to improve our student support skills.
Excellence - We recognize that learning mathematics is hard work, but that persistence pays dividends. There are no shortcuts.
Growth Mindset - We reject the notion that some people are just “not good at math.”
