About Jeffrey

In contemporary education, mathematics and reading education are the practice of teaching and learning reading and mathematics, along with the associated scholarly research. Researchers in mathematics education and reading are primarily concerned with the tools, methods and approaches that facilitate practice or the study of practice; however, mathematics education research, known on the continent of Europe as the didactics or pedagogy of mathematics, has developed into an extensive field of study, with its own concepts, theories, methods, national and international organizations, conferences and literature. This article describes some of the history, influences and recent controversies. I've over 10 years experiences in working with students.
