About the author
Lucie Cossette
|
|
A university graduate in psychology, Lucie Cossette is a statistical
analyst at Statistics Canada. Mother of two boys, she is as passionate
about children as she is about education. When her youngest son has a
great deal of difficulty memorizing multiplication tables, she
develops an innovative method geared to his visual learning style to help him succeed.
The method's success, as much with her son as with many other children and
adults, prompts her to take a leave of absence from work to publish See and
Learn Multiplication By Heart. Her sincerest wish is that no child or adult
will ever struggle again to master this crucial math skill.
See and Learn Multiplication By Heart came about because Lucie believes
that children do not all fit the same mould — they all learn differently
— and we have a responsibility to reach every one of them, help them
learn and grow. Because celebrating our differences brings out the best in all of us!
Lucie lives in Orleans, Ontario, with her husband and two sons.
She plans to return to the University of Ottawa in 2004 to complete a
master of arts in education.
