With 28 years of experience as an educator, I bring a student-centered, inquiry-driven approach to STEAM education, deeply aligned with the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (IBPYP) philosophy. For me, STEAM represents a multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary framework that enables students to develop critical skills in problem-solving, innovation, and creative thinking through real-world applications. I foster a safe, growth-oriented environment where trial, error, and iterative learning are celebrated, ensuring that each learner builds resilience and agency in their educational journey.

In STEAM, I believe that students thrive when they are empowered to explore and experiment. Whether guiding an elementary student in design-thinking activities or integrating engineering and sustainable energy concepts into the curriculum, my goal is to create immersive, hands-on learning experiences that bridge knowledge with practical, real-world challenges. By encouraging creativity and ingenuity, I aim to develop students’ abilities to collaboratively solve problems and think critically.

As an IBPYP advocate, I am committed to designing learning experiences that build student agency and self-efficacy through choice and voice. I employ innovative technologies and thoughtful questioning strategies to facilitate visible thinking, making each student’s learning journey not only engaging but reflective and meaningful. My approach centers on creating a calm, inclusive classroom culture where students feel safe, respected, and motivated to achieve success through persistence and discovery.
