Professional Development for Educators
Literacy is at the root of all learning. All courses and workshops contain a strong , present literacy component.
My philosophy of education states that people of any age learn better when a “hands on approach” is used. Every educational experience I design and teach, allows people to “experience” learning at its deepest and most personal level. |
