Clarisse teaches secondary Learning support, Alternate education and social studies in Burnaby, BC. She is passionate about local histories, place-based learning, adaptations, experiential learning, and community-building. 

What is important to me?

My priorities in the classroom include the everyday practice of storytelling, compassion, empathy, confidence-building, and relationship-building. In addition to individual and community-based responsibilities, the school's Learning support Services (LSS) team and I do our best to integrate life skills into our curriculum. 

MET Connections

I have found MET to be so resourceful and meaningful in finding technological resources for students who are in need of finding their place and identities in our classrooms.
