Teacher Joel
Both during my time at EF Education First, and as a kindergarten teacher, I have been humbled to have the opportunity to do trainings and workshops for other teachers. These have included in general teacher onboarding, lesson planning, delivery of demo classes, academic course onboarding, eliciting and giving instructions, reducing teacher talking time, a schoolwide approach for teaching phonics, introduction to the Reggio Emilia approach in early years, documentation of learning and giving feedback to students.
In some cases I was adapting training sessions content from my company or school, in others it was fully my own plan, preparation and implementation. Here are some samples of training materials that were my own work.
Parent Meeting Demo - September 2024
Demonstration for presenting our IB based inquiry curriculum and developing
