I BELIEVE...
I am a passionate teacher about the introduction of technology in classrooms and about innovative STEM practices using technology to redefine learning and experiences.
I am eager to promote new technologies in my community and I will continue to promote EDUCATIONAL INNOVATIONS in the media as an example for other community members. I truly believe that STEM is part of our lives.
In the recent years, I have been particularly interested in the application of new technologies in various disciplines, having a track record of national and international awards (teacher of the year at national level for the promotion and achievement of different digital /online material, the making of projects awarded at European and international level competitions, etc.).
I try to teach young people to be a part of community and I reminded that they are importants, they have a mission, a purpose in their life. I teach my students to solve real world's problems. Schools and parents need to encourage positive attitudes.
I think it is important to use STEM practices in a creative and innovative way, to inspire the students and teachers in discovering the best solutions for the obvious problems of real life. Thus, one can easily develop projects - on modern, current topics.
