‘How’ you learn is more important than ‘what’ you learn – a thought that shapes everything I do. Empowering people with the capacity to teach those for whom learning is a challenge defines my work. I believe the answers lie in interactions between teachers and students; for learning is personal, social, cultural and contextual.<\/p>\n

Once you know how to connect the dots, you will realise that ‘awakening brilliance’ is only a matter of learning differently. Because everyone is different in their own beautiful, captivating way.<\/p>\n

I have a Ph. D. in Multicultural Special Education from the University of Texas at Austin. Until recently, I held the position of Middle\/High School Learning Coach at the American School of Bombay, India.<\/p>\n

Here I consulted, collaborated and co-taught with teachers from Grade 6 – 10. I also worked with students identified with learning differences, and those at-risk.\u00a0 I have taught students of all ages (from Pre K – 12), in international schools in both Indonesia, the UK and the US.<\/p>\n

I have supervised and mentored novice special education and EAL teachers, and provided professional development in various topics including differentiated instruction, inclusion, and culturally responsive instruction.<\/p>\n

I work with individuals and groups, providing services such as remediation, professional development, mentoring and coaching.<\/p>\n
