Hi, I'm Jaliyla Fraser
(Ja-lee-lah)
Ms. DOPE MATH® Educator
I’m a LOVER of math. And I love when I can help change people's perspectives about math by showing them their math light. You see I'm an Illuminator and because of that I'm DOPE. And I appreciate all of the other DOPE MATH® Educators and their advocates that are out there everyday doing the work to ILLUMINATE.
As a math educator, textbook editor, national curriculum developer, math professor, high-quality instructional material reviewer, speaker, and the founder of Fraser’s Mathematics Solutions (FMS), I empower educators, families, and students to unlock their full potential in math. As a seasoned educator with over a 15 of experience, I've helped hundreds of teachers, school systems, and educational organizations create impactful, equity-driven math experiences. I lead with a level of EXCELLENCE and I don't understand the word no when it comes to children.
Beginning my career as a high school math and physics teacher, where my students consistently outperformed school, district, and state scores, I was promoted to district Math Supervisor after just 5 years. Within my 8 year tenure as the supervisor, I redeveloped the district curriculum, brought in new instructional ideas and resources for the math program, and provided continuous support to over 120 math teachers and TAs across 9 schools, all while teaching college Algebra at Rutgers, Newark. Because of my work within the district, I was asked to join the inaugural New Jersey Department of Education Computer Science Advisory Board in 2020 to help design the first iteration of computer science policy.
As the CEO of FMS, my team of Math Illuminators have provided professional development, job-embedded coaching, and culturally relevant programs to over 55 schools, 15 school districts, 485 math educators, 145 families, and 1260 students across the country - through my one of a kind DOPE MATH® Institutes and Culture Programs.
My advocacy work for math education has led to numerous partnerships with educational organizations and key stakeholders nationwide. I've co-authored national math guidance documents like the 2020 - 21 Support for Instructional Content Prioritization in High School Mathematics to support districts post-covid, in partnership with Student Achievement Partners; led a team of writers to develop coherent and culturally relevant math lessons for the Humanizing Mathematics PK-5 series with Open Up Resources; and created my own supports like my DOPE MATH® Notebook, to inspire confidence in students and families.
My goal is to continue expanding my impact through the Fraser’s Mathematics Solutions and DOPE MATH® Educator community - helping to build innovative, student-centered math experiences, while supporting teachers educators as they grow their skillsets.
Let's stay connected!
