Tamar Apel Campo was born in Cuba where she became a friend of mathematics. From there on she has been striving to make this friendship accessible to all. This is her mission. To accomplish it, she took academic studies and did research on the topic.

Writing her PhD thesis presenting a new methodology of qualitative research in mathematics education based on a humanistic approach was one of the results of widening her angle of vision, enabling her to provide an innovative approach to math teaching. She lectures in Spanish, English, and Hebrew and supports the LTM Program designed by her for Special Students in Mumbai since 2006.
