Profile

Teacher expertise and credentials

I'm Ms. Shiren! 

I am an International IB Teacher. Our family has worldschooled for over 8 years. Along my journey, I have created Colossal Academy, a farming micro-school. I enjoy watching the learning process for students age 9-14. Adolescence is such a delicate part of life when young people cement themselves into who they will become. It is critical to have sensitive teachers that offer rigor as well as loving guidance.  
In the classroom,  I am engaged with students and build a connection through the screen. Through the interdisciplinary approach, students engage in materials, ask big questions, develop speaking, and collaboration strategies. 

I am fluent in Portuguese (European Continential), Spanish and my native tongue is English.
