Lyndsay Capshaw has a B.A. in Human Development as well as a current Colorado Elementary Teaching License. She has over 20 years of professional experience working with children. Lyndsay is an excellent math teacher because at one point, she was a struggling mathematician. Lyndsay found out in college that she was dyslexic and had been reading math problems backwards. She had to work incredibly hard as adult to "re-learn" math, and she had a teacher in college who really helped her get the resources she needed. This created a passion within Lyndsay to help students realize they are good at math, they just might not have the tools they need yet. It also formed a love of math within her that students find inspirational and motivating.
