Welcome and Greetings!
Each year, I have the pleasure of introducing Math from Singapore to thousands of teachers, administrators, and parents and continue to provide dozens of schools with ongoing practical advice and coaching.
As a former classroom teacher, I know how challenging taking on a new curriculum can be. Teachers are asked to deliver a curriculum that is unknown, overwhelming, and with limited support. Many teachers worry about their own mathematical knowledge. After a general overview of the curriculum, I sit down with grade-level teachers and work with them to plan the first eight weeks of math lessons so that they can begin teaching the program with competence and confidence.
Whether you are new to the Singapore Math® curriculum or have used it for a decade, I am happy to craft a program that will engage teachers and provide new insights.

How can I help you implement your math curriculum?
Here’s what some schools (and teachers!) have to say:
New Vision Charter School, Loveland, CO
Cassy Turner has been affiliated with New Vision Charter School as our Singapore Math consultant for two years. Cassy has exemplary historical knowledge of the Singapore Math curriculum and development from it’s inception in Singapore to its more recent transition into American schools. She has supported New Vision Charter School in fully implementing our K-8 curriculum through specified staff and community workshops.
Currently at NVCS, she is lesson planning with teams of teachers to provide support around math concepts and instructional delivery. This has proven to be invaluable to our Math program as a whole. She is also acting as an advisory to our curriculum committee as we correlate the Singapore Math concepts with our state standards and core knowledge concepts. Cassy has played a critical role in developing our Singapore Math curriculum. She has been flexible in the structure of her trainings to meet our specific needs and is an invaluable resource for instructional support around specific mathematical topics.

Campbell Hall, North Hollywood, CA
…We launched the 2008 – 09 year using Singapore Math and have not looked back. To a person, my faculty has ownership of the curriculum and remains passionate about Singapore Math. I attribute much of this enthusiasm to the confidence that Cassy has helped instill in them during our training sessions and her willingness to be available by phone or email to answer any questions that came up along the way…
