Mrs. Karen VanNieuwenhuize– Math T213

I am a graduate of UW-Platteville, majoring in Elementary Education with minors in both math and computer science. Recently I completed my masters in education at Viterbo University.


My 6 children keep me quite busy during my time at home as I attend tennis matches, volleyball games, track meets, and basketball games.


In teaching math, I try to inspire students to think outside the box and realize their potential that more than one way to solve a problem exists; and that there may be more than one solution. I believe in the ability of our students and the potential for the future they hold with them. We all learn by a variety of means and I hope to open the doors to the knowledge within themselves.
