Ph.D. in Physics, founder of Maths Plus Academy and founding member of The Global Math Project, Raj Shah joins Allan Dougan on the podcast for a discussion about how harmful shame and judgement is for maths students, helping kids develop a passion for mathematics, the difference between maths and school maths, and how helpful a rebrand for maths would be.
