Teaching certificates

In 2019, I was awarded a teaching certificate for higher education teaching. I also regularly participate in pedagogical training. In 2022-2024, I completed the ACUE‘s courses about Promoting Active Learning Online, Inspiring Inquiry and Preparing Lifelong Learners, Creating an Inclusive and Supportive Online Learning Environment, and Designing Learner-Centered and Equitable Courses. Completing these four courses provided me with ACUE’s Certificate in Effective Teaching Practice Framework. In 2023, I completed UNCG’s trainings Safe Zone 1.0, Safe Zone 2.0, and Trans Zone to make my campus a more inclusive space.

I received a “MAC shout-out” for my general education Critical Thinking course in Fall 2023.
