Hi everyone! My name is Kelsey Lewis and I am thrilled to be facilitating this workshop and learning with all of you. :) I live in Toronto and I am a PhD student in the Educational Leadership and Policy department at the Ontario Institute for Studies at the University of Toronto. I am currently researching the impact of COVID on schooling and how school leaders can support the mental health of teachers. I support the IB as a workshop leader, visiting team member, IB field representative, content developer and curriculum reviewer. I began my teaching career in Ontario 20 years ago where I spent the first two years teaching multiple grade levels in both a homeroom and support capacity. I was PYP coordinator at the American School of Bilbao in Spain and previous to that the Director of Curriculum at The York School in Canada. Before taking on a curriculum coordinator role I taught internationally at the Western Academy of Beijing, the International School of Düsseldorf and the International School of Bremen in Germany. In 2018 I returned to Canada after my last post as Elementary principal at Hanoi International School in Vietnam. On a personal note, I am mom to six little go-getters. I look forward to connecting with all of you! Warmly, Kelsey]]> 2022-01-13 14:32:10 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/y4mbihxex65ivm89/wish/1990468197 Hello https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/y4mbihxex65ivm89/wish/2001720040 Hi everyone! My name is Renata Chaves and I am excited to participate in the PYP Workshop and learn about new things and concepts. I live in São Paulo and work as Educational Consultant since 2014. I support private schools in all Brasil, inclusive Maple Bear, observing classrooms and giving feedback to teachers, preparing formative workshops and working on curriculum design in Portuguese. 

I’ve visited the Escola Canadense de Brasília since 2014 and I am proud to help them in this new transition. 

I have 2 daughters and 1 son and I love to do cycle tourism. 

Best regards.

I have been teaching for about 8 years in international schools!
I'm so excited to start working with the IB program, and I'm anxious to get to know it better!]]> 2022-01-20 22:56:02 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/y4mbihxex65ivm89/wish/2003958939 Adrienne Kharol https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/y4mbihxex65ivm89/wish/2004869235 Hello everyone!
My name is Adrienne Kharol, but people call me Kharol. I am 26 years old, and I majored in languages and literature at the university. I have an older brother who is also a teacher, and I like to exchange experiences with him. I also have a sweet younger sister who is studying law in college. I live with my parents in Brasília, and I am the middle child. I like to think that I was chosen for the education area because I always cared a lot about studies. My first class as a teacher was in 2017, in high school. Since then, I have been collecting many experiences. My dream is to travel to some countries around the world and learn more about the education system there, so I can bring it to Brazil and change education here.]]> 2022-01-21 11:57:28 UTC https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/y4mbihxex65ivm89/wish/2004869235 Rondinelli Benicio rondinellisilva https://padlet.com/kelseyannca/y4mbihxex65ivm89/wish/2008771522 Hello!!
