Beth Jackson

Biography
I’m currently teaching 6th and 7th graders, Math 7. Middles schoolers are my favorite students to teach. I love the challenge of coaching students to change their mindset and believe they are able to be better in math if they weren’t already. Growth mindset is foundational in my class. I”m originally from VT which is a lot like CO but on a much smaller scale. SkyView has been a great experience for me professionally as the leadership is phenomenal and my colleagues are some of my favorite people.
