Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
I have over 20 years of experience as a science educator, primarily teaching grades 6, 7, and 8 at Ponaganset Middle School. Throughout my career, I have focused on fostering student engagement through hands-on, inquiry-based learning, and integrating educational technology to enhance understanding. As the Science Curriculum Coordinator since 2020, I have designed NGSS-aligned units, supported colleagues in implementing best practices, and ensured curriculum standards are met.
In addition to classroom teaching, I am a certified PLTW (Project Lead the Way) teacher and have completed the Medical Detectives program at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. My role as a RIDE NGSS Facilitator has allowed me to lead professional development workshops for teachers across Rhode Island, focusing on effective science instruction and curriculum development.
I have extensive experience working with middle school students, creating engaging lessons that connect scientific concepts to real-world applications. My expertise in using tools like Google Suite, Canvas, and Microsoft Teams ensures that I can provide a modern, accessible learning environment tailored to diverse student needs.
Beyond the classroom, I coach AAU basketball for the RI Knights, where I mentor and guide young athletes, developing their skills and teamwork. My role as an EdTech teacher involves training educators and presenting at summits, like the AI in Education Summit, to explore innovative teaching strategies.
This combination of teaching, leadership, and mentorship equips me to create a dynamic and supportive environment for young learners to explore and excel in science.Reseñas
