It was one of the first times I independently taught material that I designed based on real-world applications (as opposed to out of a textbook). It was challenging but extremely rewarding.]]> 2020-08-19 01:40:03 UTC https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/686340932 megandaniels1 https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/686345261 After my undergrad, I taught in the public school system in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China. It was my first real teaching experience and involved a lot of (mostly funny) mishaps. Living and working in China was a very formative experience for me, and has driven a lot of my research and teaching experiences.]]> 2020-08-19 01:44:28 UTC https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/686345261 https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/688248343 This is photo I took from Central Park in NYC, where I completed graduate work and had my first experiences as a teaching assistant and as an adjunct instructor. I teach students about the relationship between the environment and human health, so I love how this picture juxtaposes two very different environments - the park and the skyscrapers. I also conducted field research in Central Park, so it was a place of learning for me in that respect as well!]]> 2020-08-19 20:50:24 UTC https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/688248343 https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/688737012 This is where I taught filmmaking for the first time. My class was small, 12 students very eager to learn and to be exposed to new things. I taught an intensive workshop for 3 days and felt incredibly satisfied and fulfilled by the end of the experience.]]> 2020-08-20 05:04:16 UTC https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/688737012 https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/690168378 This is where I did my PhD.]]> 2020-08-20 18:49:09 UTC https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/690168378 https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/690744259 On a trip to Sniatyn, Ukraine (Galicia) I finally realized how fragile liberty is.]]> 2020-08-21 01:40:55 UTC https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/690744259 https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/691890570 UofT is what brought my parents to Canada almost 30 years ago and training here now runs in my family.

This was the place I truly felt able to risk everything, and dream BIG, while also feeling accountable to the passion, ethics and hard work of the rest of the student body. Running this institution in my final year was when I felt most connected to theatre as an as act of SERVICE, most alive with potential and creative fertility, most aligned. It's where I made lifelong friends, my favourite art, and tested my limits. ]]> 2020-08-24 03:41:17 UTC https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/693886470 https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/694521086 I had little interest in continuing my studies beyond high school, but after much encouragement from my parents, I agreed to enroll at the University of Victoria.

This city imbibed values of tenacity, perseverance, hard work, and resilience in me, which I needed to survive, as a young teenager doing college alone without my family, in the United States. I was determined to reach the peak of my career and worked hard at it. My Nigerian upbringing exposed me to cultural diversity at a young age- a significant portion of my teaching career values diversity, inclusion and equity of knowledge assimilation for my students. ]]> 2020-08-27 06:10:52 UTC https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/701890794 https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/701988798 The place where I was fortunate enough to have teachers who encouraged my curiosity and desire to be challenged.]]> 2020-08-27 08:00:42 UTC https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/701988798 https://padlet.com/emrey/hl5k9f0wr5bxs62x/wish/702741147 My alma mater, where my teaching journey began
