Hello, my name is Geetha. I'm working as a HighSchool teacher for the past 12 years in the Toronto District School-board, and I have been teaching more than 30 credit courses in Ontario including Math, Science, Careers, Family studies and Special education. To foster ongoing learning to my students, I rolemodel learning and completed 7 additional qualifiactions after completing two Bachelors of Education degrees. Currently I am doing my Masters of Education at OISE. I am passionate about Special education and student success. I'm assuming an Assistant curriculum leader position in an Edvance program during the upcoming year.
I realised, for a long time I had been believing myself to be a Behaviourist and now I am falling in love with 'Constructivism'.
As a passionate teacher and leader, I would like to offer holistic development for my students using various interdisciplinary approaches and by embracing technology.
My goal is to create a holostic classroom for the Edvance learners , where individual differences, styles, intelligences are acknowledged and celebrataed and students cherish a positive relationship. Students would be allowed to have a respectful, open communication, engage in decision making , build their own knowledge, involve in authentic learning tasks, and work cooperatively and colloboratively. As a part of my vision I am creating this website to offer a repertoire of tools and strategies to my students.
