About Me
Hi, I’m Lisa Cooner—a passionate educator, instructional designer, and advocate for joyful, inclusive math learning.
With over 18 years of experience in education, I’ve worn many hats: classroom teacher, special education teacher, math teacher, curriculum writer, and instructional designer. No matter the role, my mission has remained the same—to help students and teachers experience math with clarity, confidence, and curiosity.
I hold multiple degrees that reflect my deep commitment to both pedagogy and content:
-
B.S. in Mathematics Education
-
M.S. in Curriculum and Instruction
-
Ed.S. in Mathematics Education and Leadership
My work is rooted in the belief that every learner is capable of understanding math, and that effective teaching begins with empathy, strategy, and the courage to reimagine what’s possible.
Through Lisa Cooner Learning Solutions, I support educators with resources and training that make math more accessible, more meaningful, and—yes—even more joyful.
