I'm Nisha Phillip Malahoo, an educator deeply committed to fostering positive change by cultivating powerful connections that enhance the lives of students and strengthen community relationships.
My personal journey through education was marked by struggles with mathematics. Surrounded by individuals who perpetuated my insecurities, I spent years avoiding academic pursuits and labeled myself as 'not a math person.' However, a chance encounter with an inspiring educator opened my eyes to the beauty, wonder, and joy of mathematics. This transformative experience ignited a profound desire within me to redefine how students perceive this subject.
Today, I work tirelessly to help my students become young mathematicians, guiding them on a journey to transform their irrational fears and dislikes of math into sources of excitement and boundless opportunity. I achieve this by tapping into an underutilized resource - our local community. By harnessing this valuable asset, I address the holistic needs of each child before tending to their academic growth, fostering stronger relationships and deeper connections.
