Mathnics
William Paul Thurston said, "Mathematics is not about numbers, equations, computations, or algorithms: it is about understanding."
But how many students struggle to understand mathematics?
Mathnics, F1NE-TUNE's mathematics clinics, offer specialized training to help K - 12 mathematics teachers boost
student comprehension, engagement, and achievement. Mathnics are offered virtually to educators across the globe.
