Getting to Know

Mr. Werner

This past year I took a trip to Italy with my wife, Alexandra. We traveled to Rome (pictured here at the Roman Forum), Florence, Venice, and Montalcino. I was able to go to the Galileo Museum where many amazing mathematical and science instruments were on display, including an original calculator from the 1600's!

Hi! I'm Nevin Werner. I've taught elementary education for many years before becoming a Math & Science Supervisor and Coach. I also was a Math Curriculum & Learning Consultant for PowerMyLearning, a national non-profit learning technology organization.

I live in Bergen County with my wife (Alexandra), son (Liam), and dog (Max).

My main mission as a Math & Science Supervisor and Coach comes down to one goal: help students and teachers fall in love with math and science. I look forward to helping the River Edge staff and students achieve this goal. Feel free to check out my experience below and definitely look at my twitter since I will be posting projects and lessons throughout the year to highlight the amazing teaching and learning happening in the River Edge School District.
