Dr. Nicole Gearing

Biography

I am an Associate Professor in the Elementary Education program at UVU. I teach elementary mathematics methods courses. I love to learn more about how elementary teachers and students talk and write about math. I am also interested in finding ways to support teachers as they integrate math across the elementary curriculum.
