Hi, I’m Mary Trinkle

Maybe you want to explore your math instruction. Maybe you want to learn more about best practices for mathematics pedagogy. Or maybe you support a school or district and want to provide your team an opportunity to grow their teaching. Wherever you are in your math teaching journey, I would love to hold space for your exploration and learning.

Schedule a free consultation with me and we can figure out where to start your journey!


My Approach

I approach my coaching and professional learning with a stance of curiosity and inquiry. I aspire to hold space for my clients in such a way that allows them to bring their whole-selves to our work. Our sessions will be guided by what is coming up for you—you will set the goals of our work and our sessions to grow your math instruction, identity, etc.
