“Math only works because it describes consistencies that God holds in place.” – Katie Vance
“What type of class would you want to sit in? And then create it.” – Katie Vance
Math doesn’t have to be the “necessary evil.” In this episode, Jenny Copeland sits down with Katie Vance—an experienced Christian educator who once struggled with math but learned to see God’s fingerprints all over it.
Together, they explore why so many students (and even teachers) dislike math, what truly helps students engage and understand, and how math can point learners to a faithful, truth-telling God. Katie shares her honest journey from teaching math through memorization to embracing student-centered learning that invites curiosity, participation, and deeper understanding.
Key Takeaways for Teachers
- If students hate math, it’s often because they don’t understand it yet, not because they “aren’t math people.”
- Teachers grow when they move from “teach what I know” to “keep learning alongside my students.”
- Math is a powerful place to disciple hearts: it can point students to truth, dependence on God, and a faithful Creator.
- The classroom isn’t just about grades; it’s an eternal investment.
- Katie encourages educators to take the pressure off perfection and simply take the next step in growing as teachers and learners.
“Everyone’s a math person because our Creator is—and we’re made in His image.” – Katie Vance
Every day in the classroom is YOUR day to impact and inspire through God’s power and grace working in you.
Go do what God has called you to do!
