This may be our funniest episode yet. Today we have Calculusious AKA "Mathy Cathy". All jokes aside... this is Jenny Shawley and she is a high school math teacher in Western Pennsylvania. She teaches Algebra and AP Calculus. Two and a half years ago she made a math-related Tiktok to get her students excited for a new unit in calculus. They loved it so much, they convinced her to create a math meme account on Instagram and Tiktok. Since then she has created a math help Discord Server, where volunteer tutors answer questions that range from pre-algebra to college-level math courses, and a Youtube channel where she teaches calculus lessons. Jenny's biggest inspiration has and always will be her students. Her goal is to help students around the world not only understand but enjoy and appreciate mathematics. Take a listen to learn how she got her name and how her students inspired her along the way.
