Create a new narrative about teaching and learning
Community engagement and storytelling for innovative, relevant and impactful learning
Do you want your mission and vision to be more “lived” and less “laminated”?
Would you like students to be more engaged, more curious, and more excited about learning?
Do you want to build stronger school communities, more authentic community partnerships, and deeper connections and relationships between people in and around your campus?
It’s time for a new story of flourishing, joy, and sustainability in schools.
I am a community engagement, service learning, global citizenship & storytelling specialist, designing learning where students can apply knowledge and skills in authentic local and global contexts.
