A few words about myself

I am a passionate, experienced educator, advocating for a connected learning pedagogical approach that prepares learners for life in a networked society. I was a pioneer in collaborative online intercultural learning (2009) and have initiated countless cross-cultural virtual exchanges since then. Forever an innovator and educational leader, I pioneered virtual schooling for EFL in pre Covid times. This experience prepared me to be influential with the transition to distance learning during the pandemic- training hundreds of educators, and later with the introduction of blended learning in Higher Ed. Additionally, I have contributed to facilitating transformative processes for faculty development focusing on the acquisition of digital literacy skills, and the effective and thoughtful integration of technology in teaching.
