Cicely Woodard is a math teacher at Kickapoo High School, and her approach to education has earned her national recognition, including the Tennessee Teacher of the Year and the Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching. Cicely is on a mission to make math accessible and applicable to students and to teach them that when they learn the equation they never thought would stick, that’s a lesson they can carry to every part of life. Math didn’t come easily to Cicely growing up, but it was because it was a challenge that she was drawn to it. In this episode, we talk about how she’s been a trailblazer in her profession, the journey she took to develop her teaching style and what it’s like to be an educator in today’s climate.
