-- Sharon Canaday, CEO and Lead Tutor of TurningPoint Math, was presented with the “Excellence In Education Award” at the Education 2.0 Conference. The event was held from April 7–9, 2026, at the Bellagio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, USA. The award recognizes those who move beyond traditional methods to inspire learning and promote lasting progress in education.
Sharon Canaday has spent over 30 years in education, serving students and families in a wide variety of roles. As the Founder of TurningPoint Math, she brings deep empathy to her work, rooted in her own childhood struggles with math. Sharon believes math is more than numbers; it is a powerful training ground for critical thinking, problem-solving, and independent thought skills our world urgently needs.
Through patient, personalized, and often playful instruction, she helps discouraged students rebuild confidence and learn how to think, not just compute. Known for turning bad math days into good ones, Sharon leads a team of tutors who share her passion for connection, encouragement, and lasting transformation.
After receiving the award, Sharon reflected on the recognition, stating,” It is refreshing to know that I’m not just quietly working away, in my office, and people have noticed the difference that my work, and the work of my team is having on the lives of our students!”
Sharon’s recognition highlights her efforts to promote personalized learning approaches, strengthen student confidence, and support academic environments where understanding and independent thinking remain central to the learning process. Through her work, she maintains a focus on helping learners approach challenges with clarity and confidence.
