Skills & Interests

I am interested in learning new languages and experiencing new cultures. I am a strong Special Education advocate and would like to support students with special needs around the world, as I know that some education systems are poorly developed, let alone special education within them.
I am interested in community development, as is my husband who teaches at the post-secondary level in Tourism development.

If you have done work internationally, where and in what capacity?

Not yet but very enthusiastic about the prospect!

If you are willing to volunteer, in what area(s):

curriculum development, evaluation measurements, fund-raising, internships, membership outreach, organisational partnerships, researchers

How did you hear about us and a few words why you want to join EBB:

I heard about you through a colleague.

I would like to join TWB to support my international colleagues who do not have access to the resources I have in Canada, yet have the professional will to be the best for their students.
I enjoy volunteering in my local community and would like the opportunity to expand my horizons, improve my own teaching through observations of other cultures and I would like to meet like-minded individuals.
