Elisabeth Krainski

Upper School Mathematics & Physics Instructor
B.S.E., Mechanical Engineering, Arizona State University

My name is Elisabeth Krainski, and I was born and raised in Arizona. My family has attended the same church since I was two years old, and growing up in a Christ-centered home has shaped who I am today. My relationship with the Lord has influenced every stage of my life, and I am grateful for the opportunity to serve at Caritas, where I can help students grow not only in their academic abilities but also in their character and faith. I met my fiancé through our church, and we are excited to be getting married this November.

I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, where I developed a love for problem-solving, critical thinking, and discovering how God has designed the world to work. Although engineering was my field of study, I realized that one of my greatest passions is helping students learn and gain confidence in mathematics. Before joining Caritas, I tutored homeschooled students in math for about a year and taught mathematics at American Leadership Academy during part of the previous school year. I love helping students build strong problem-solving skills, think logically, and discover that math is something they truly can succeed in.

Outside of the classroom, I enjoy pottery, gardening, hiking, and spending time with family and friends. I am looking forward to getting to know each of my students, partnering with their families, and making this a joyful and rewarding year of learning together.
