About this listen

Somewhere along the way in math class, a lot of students stop saying "this is hard" and start saying "I'm not a math person."

Episode 2 explores why math carries so much emotional weight, and how a few words can shape what students believe about themselves for years. Florida teachers share what they've learned about shame, silence, and the "armor" students bring into math class… and how listening closely, adjusting language, and inviting real feedback can help students re-engage and try again.

What Counts is presented by Impact Florida and produced by De LeCourt.
