    Hidden Problem In How Math Is Taught| TMT With Sunil Singh

    Why Children Think They’re Bad at Math | Dr Garima in Conversation with Sunil Singh! Why do so many children grow up believing they are “bad at math”? Is the problem really the subject — or the way it’s being taught? In this thought-provoking episode of Math Talks, Dr. Garima sits down with renowned educator, author, and global speaker Sunil Singh to question one of the biggest assumptions in education. After nearly two decades of teaching across countries — from Toronto to Switzerland — Sunil stepped away from traditional classrooms, not because he stopped loving math, but because he could no longer ignore what the system was doing to it. Together, they explore why math has become one of the most feared subjects for children around the world, how traditional teaching methods often train students to stop trusting their own thinking, and why math should actually be experienced as a living language of patterns, stories, and curiosity. This conversation goes beyond marks, worksheets, and quick fixes. It challenges the way we understand learning itself — and invites parents and educators to rethink how children experience mathematics. If you’ve ever watched a child struggle with math and wondered if something deeper is broken in the system, this episode will give you a completely new perspective.

    What Education Needs In the Age of AI? Makiri Pough On TMT

    Is AI really transforming education, or are we misunderstanding its role? In this thought-provoking podcast in the Math Talk Series, Makiri Pough shares a powerful perspective on Artificial Intelligence and how it should actually be used in education. AI is often treated like something revolutionary or magical. But as Makiri Pough explains, AI is simply a tool — much like a calculator or a mobile phone. Its power depends entirely on how thoughtfully we use it. Instead of using AI just because it is trending, we need to ask a much more important question: What real problem are we trying to solve? In this episode, Dr. Garima discusses: • Why AI should not be romanticized • The importance of using AI with clear intent • How the future of education is shifting from speed to deep understanding • Why success will be defined by thinking ability, flexibility, and confidence According to her, the next generation will succeed not by answering quickly, but by thinking deeply and engaging with the world thoughtfully. 🎙 Now Streaming On: YouTube If you enjoyed the conversation, don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe for more insightful discussions. #aiineducation #futureoflearning #educationpodcast #artificialintelligence #podcastindia

    Want learning to actually stay in your child’s brain? Listen to this!

    In schools, math is often treated like a competition — faster answers, higher scores, fewer mistakes. But that’s not how math works in the real world. In this episode of Math Talks, we explore why competitive math classrooms fail to create real understanding — and what actually helps learning stick. When students make mistakes or show misconceptions, it’s not a failure. It’s proof that they’re thinking. Research and classroom experience show that children are capable of far more than we assume. They can reason, spot patterns, and make generalizations — if we allow them to think instead of rushing them to answers. In this conversation, we unpack: Why speed and competition weaken understanding What misconceptions really tell us about a child’s thinking How learning enters the brain — and why explanation alone doesn’t work Why students must use their brain to truly own what they learn How parents and teachers can shift from performance to thinking If you want children to understand math, remember it, and use it confidently, this episode will change how you look at learning. ✨ Because learning doesn’t happen by being told. It happens by thinking.
