Wendy van Gastel

Wendy van Gastel was an elementary school teacher and administrator in the Netherlands and the US where she taught at both inner-city and private schools. Having experienced the disparity in education systems, she believes every child deserves an early start in math. She is convinced that when adults and children do math together in a playful way, math will not only develop children’s critical thinking but will also become a fulfilling part of their lives.
