A Brief Profile
I'm an international educator currently in Hanoi, Vietnam. I teach at UNIS Hanoi in the English A department. I've been overseas for 8 years, all of them within MYP schools. I'm also an English A MYP Workshop Leader for the Asia-Pacific Region. You can probably tell that MYP is a curriculum framework I am quite dedicated to!
I'm also very dedicated to the importance of technology and problem-solving in education, and I write about these and other issues on my blog, create. connect. question.
In fall 2009 I will leave Hanoi and move to New York, where I'll attend NYU Steinhardt to do an M.A. in Educational Communication and Technology.
I'm happy to connect with people here! Thanks to you all for making this such an active and warm space.

These simple things make everyone's day a bit brighter and the load that they carry a bit lighter. It also means the world to us when someone shows that they care enough to help. This is inspiring, Erik. I hope you will continue sharing here!
I wonder how YOU felt while you were doing these things, Daniel. I'll bet that doing small things that help others brings you a lot of happiness too. In so many ways, giving to others is a way of making our own lives better too. You should be very...

Hello everyone!
I've been a correspondent for the Buffalo News NeXt, a section written by Western New York teens, for four years. I'm currently working on a story about the Global Poetry Project that will hopefully run in the Dec. 24th edition. I'...
Hi Jenny! I will see what I can do to link some of them to you! ;o)
It sounds like you've done an amazing job motivating your class. I'd love to see their Glogs -is there any way some of them could be linked here?
Also- many, many pennies have been coming in! The students are excited to raise money for the CAI ;o)
There is an article in today's NeXt section of the Buffalo News about Greg Morentenson... check it out. The glogs our students are creating are so AMAZING!
I absolutely love this! Lyrics to a beautiful song that you've composed perhaps? I love to see what you are writing, Hannah. This is just beautiful...

I've just written a new post in this Ning. My school has just started the PYP process this year. You might recognise that from our planning. What do you think of our central idea and lines of inquiry. Any suggestions? Nice to see you here. Cheers Nina
You slipped in here unnoticed! Sorry I didn't catch up with you joining earlier. Great to have a member from Vietnam- you're the first from that country. If there is anything we can do to support you in projects you might have planned that will make a difference, please let us know. Very pleased that you have chosen to join us.
