Introduce yourself

I will be your Mathematics teacher.
I used to live in China now I live in Thionville.
I am super happy to help you shine this year. So please tell me all about your interests, your needs, and your learning style to ensure that you will learn and enjoy your learning!!!

I am Ingrid Delange

I have been teaching for 24 years on various continents and I participated in writing a few textbooks. So I have plenty of resources! If you need support to improve or be the best. In any case, I will be here to help you learn and push you to fulfill your potential.

So to ensure I do it well for you, you must give me feedback e.g. if it is too easy, too long, too short, too difficult.... you prefer some activities or the other. Let me know!

​

A bit about my experience.

Have you paid attention to what you read?

Multiple Choice

Where did I move from?

• Egypt

• Uganda

• China

• France

Multiple Choice

If you are lost because it is too difficult or if you are bored because its too easy you should.

• cry

• ignore and wait for the class to finish

• check with your group if you they can help you and let me know

• go and hide in the bathroom

Multiple Choice

If you realize that you are doing a series of exercises that you learned last year and mastered quite well.

• finish the whole task

• go over some exercises and check that the answers are correct and send me a team message to ask for extension

• work on another subject

Always push yourself

Maths is the sport of the brain, it teaches you to always try to find a way go beyond your boundaries to solve problems. If you don't find the exercises slightly difficult it means that you are not learning you are not really doing maths. It is normal to be a bit puzzled, to ask for help. It is like in sport if your body doesn't ache a bit it means that you haven't given the best of yourself.

Multiple Choice

I have never been good at maths so there is no point.

• true

• false

  Despite his deafness, Beethoven composed some of his greatest works, including his Ninth Symphony.
Stephen Hawkings became one of the most influential scientists of the 20th century despite being unable to move the upper and lower parts of the body.

SO NO EXCUSE CAN PREVENT YOU TO ACHIEVE YOUR BEST. YOU CAN DO IT !
I will be here for you to succeed.

Now tell me all about you!

I will try to make the units interesting using your guidance. So be honest.
