Faculty Highlights

"Math makes everyone COUNT!’ is my mantra. It is both inclusionary and action-based — two principles that guide the work we do at the Hunter College School of Education."

"No wonder the students at Hunter become such stellar educators — they work with faculty who care deeply about their growth and well-being."

"To teach is a deeply personal experience because we engage with other humans—their knowledge, thoughts, beliefs, and life histories to date—with the intent of helping them learn and grow. Simultaneously, good teachers learn from their everyday interactions with students who, in turn, provide endless opportunities for their teacher’s continued intellectual, emotional, and social growth."
