About Andrew Hall
I teach elementary math and science in Florida, and I like building tools for the parts of school that get loud, repetitive, weirdly complicated, or all three at once.
Before teaching, I worked in school IT. That meant devices, accounts, staff support, student devices, clear notes, and a lot of "can you come look at this real quick?"
Context
Classroom teaching, teacher support, and school IT all show up in the way I build.
I taught 3rd grade math and science from 2022 to 2025, taught 4th grade math and science during the 2025-2026 school year, and am slated to teach 5th grade math and science for 2026-2027. So yes, I have strong opinions about directions, pacing, and whether a button is big enough for a kid using a shared screen from across the room.
I have helped with grade-level leadership, PLCs, shared teacher resources, assessments, and training. I like helping teachers get from "this thing exists" to "I can actually use this on Tuesday without losing my mind."
I worked for the School District of Osceola County before teaching, supporting staff, students, devices, accounts, and all the tiny mysteries that show up five minutes before the bell rings.
How I work
I care about polish, but the first test is simple: can someone use this without needing a mini training session?
A classroom tool has to survive noise, borrowed devices, short attention spans, mystery Wi-Fi, and a teacher who is already doing six things. If it only works in a quiet demo, it does not really work.
I like clear notes, checklists, and examples that answer the next obvious question. Future me is one of the people I keep notes for, and that guy forgets things.
Most tools need edits later because people keep having new ideas. I try to build things in a way that makes the next update feel like a normal afternoon job, not a weekend project by accident.
Start a conversation
I like small projects with a real reason to exist: classroom tools, practical websites, cleaner training materials, and the occasional "surely this can be easier" idea.
