Professional Development

Life-long Learning

As an educator, I am constantly seeking ways to improve my practice through professional development and learning opportunities. This helps me better my practice, discover new and innovative teaching practices, and stay humble.

Below are some of the professional development opportunities I have taken advantage of. You will find examples of the trainings I have attended relating to my work as a Spanish World Language teacher, ESL teacher, and as a teacher development coach.
