Meet Steve

Stephen Buch is currently a sixth grade math teacher that enjoys creating intriguing resources for his students.  His passion and students recently guided him to this new journey of sharing his love for teaching and providing quality engaging math resources for middle school students and teachers around the world. 

Since 2009 Stephen Buch has been teaching middle school students. Most of his experience is focused around sixth grade mathematics; although, he also taught social studies and science. All Stephen’s teaching interactions and experiences revolve around the common idea that he teaches middle school students, not necessarily a subject.  With this in mind, he has developed a variety of lessons and rigorous activities that exceed or meet the common core standards, while putting students’ needs and interests first.

Captivating students by any means possible is what drives his lessons and daily teaching. Stephen Buch’s overall teaching style is eclectic and involves components from various styles to ensure his students are engaged in what they are doing. Stephen states, “If I am having fun with resources or lessons I am creating, my students are most likely enjoying what they are learning as well.”

Stephen Buch is happily married to his best friend that has grown to be the better part of him since high school.  Yep, that’s right, high school sweethearts.  Steve and his wife are continually working on developing the life of our dreams with their Golden Doodle, Lucy, and their first child, a baby boy, who was born in August 2019.  In his free time when he is not grading or creating resources, Steve enjoys spending time with his family, and participating in physical activities such as weight training, working in the yard, walking his dog and snowboarding in the winter months.  Thank you for taking the time to visit this website and getting to know the man behind the blog a little better.
