Diana Ramzy
Lower School Math Specialist & BPC Math Club & Math Team Lead
With 23 years of experience as a mathematics educator, Diana Ramzy is committed to helping students build confidence, think critically, and develop a deep understanding of mathematics. Diana holds a bachelor’s degree in education with a major in mathematics and a master’s degree in educational leadership. Her background has prepared her to provide effective, student-centered instruction that meets the diverse needs of learners in heterogeneous classrooms. Diana strives to create engaging learning experiences that encourage students to reason, ask questions, and understand the “why” behind mathematical concepts rather than simply memorize procedures. She believes all students can succeed when they are supported, challenged, and given opportunities to make meaningful connections. Her goal is to create a classroom culture where curiosity, perseverance, and conceptual understanding thrive, empowering students to become confident, independent mathematical thinkers. Diana is excited to join the Black Pine Circle Community this year.
