About the speaker: 

Caroline Ainslie is an award-winning maths entertainer and Guinness World Records title holder.

Caroline founded the first iteration of Bubbly Maths in 2005 and has dedicated her life ever since to fulfilling the vision of reaching every child on Earth so they can love learning and enjoy mathematics.

Caroline is passionate about supporting AIMSSEC, a charity which provides specialist training for teachers from disadvantaged communities in Africa and has even climbed Mount Kilimanjaro to fundraise for teacher bursaries. She loves attempting Guinness World Records which have led to the building of several large balloon sculptures (Sierpinski tetrahedron) and sparked the Global STEAM Lesson which is now held annually around the world.
