Dismantling the Anxiety Contagion:
Why Student Success Starts with Teacher Confidence

Math anxiety often begins long before high school and can quietly impact student confidence, achievement, and long-term success in mathematics.

In this webinar, we explored the root causes of math anxiety, how it can be unintentionally passed from educators and parents to students, and the ways it affects learning. We discussed practical strategies schools and families can use to create more positive math experiences and examine how personalized learning tools like KAIT help reduce barriers, build confidence, and support student growth.
