Laurie Capalbo (Beachside Math) is a new vendor for iLEAD but she is no newbie to math! Her extensive and in-depth experience in applied mathematics coupled with her love of teaching is a great equation! Pun intended.
Mrs. Capalbo earned a bachelor of science in electrical engineering from U.C. Santa Barbara. After nine years of working in satellite communications, she left the aerospace industry and was promoted to homemaker and mother of three girls. She has been an instructor at HSFM since the math program began in 2011. In addition, she provides math tutoring for kids from elementary school to college. Her passion for teaching math has enabled her to present concepts in a learner-friendly manner. She also challenges kids not to just learn “how” to do math, but also to understand “why” we do math.
Laurie has earned the respect and admiration from families for being an incredibly gifted math tutor. She has the keen ability to unlock a learner’s math potential!
