Testimonials:
“I was unfamiliar with how to use Rekenrek effectively prior to this training. Not only did Amy inspire me, but she made me aware of how versatile Rekenreks can be in developing number sense across all phases of the primary curriculum. It was AMAZING!”
“The rekenrek is such an amazing resource to use with children across the primary age range; I had not realised how many concepts could be taught using it until today!”
“I think this is one of the best resources I have come across in my teaching career and if I ever go back to teaching full time, it will be one of the first resources I buy to use in class. Thank you for introducing me to the Rekenrek Amy!”
“superb apparatus and very thought provoking workshop. I learned a great deal.”
“I would highly recommend Amy as a trainer for Rekenrek…She came into our school and totally changed the mindset of our teachers. Amy has had a lasting effect on how we teach maths at our school!” CS – Cairo
“Although virtual, the course was very interactive and has inspired me. Thanks a billion! The course exceeded my expectations! I look forward to your future courses.” KR – UK
