How can I support you?
— Meredith Fenton, Director of IB Programs, U.B.C.
“Your presentation really demystified concept-based learning for my IB teacher candidates, as many referred to this and to your work in their professional growth plans. You definitely made an impact.”
— Lisa Wergland, Teacher
“Our inquiry was so great! What a wonderful way to start the year and have everyone working on the same inquiry. Even though each teacher approached it differently, we felt very connected as a school.”
— Teachers, Cordova Bay Elementary
“Misty is enthusiastic, and she listens, honours, and inspires everyone. She provides us with examples at all grade levels, and her strategies are easily transferred to our classrooms. She’s not just book smart!”
— Charlotte Sakaki, Vice Principal
“Thank you so much for all the incredible support and mentoring you have given me during our sessions together. It's been truly inspiring for me to gain a new understanding and approach to teaching.”
— Stephanie Morris, IB PYP Coordinator
“Your workshop had an impact on us. We all felt we could create learning engagements that follow a studio concept in our classrooms, and it’s been great to try some of the things we experienced with you.”
My keynotes are thought-provoking, research-informed and highly interactive. Rather than simply listening, educators are invited to think, create, inquire and make meaning together—turning the room into a shared learning experience that generates fresh insight and opens new possibilities for practice.
