"I learned how dyscalculia affects the brain and effective interventions and modifications to help them. I learned how a dyscalculia can affect a student both in the classroom and the real world. I learned how to use multimodal teaching strategies with incorporates many senses and can help math concepts to be stored in different parts of the brain."
