About Me

I have been an elementary and secondary school teacher and administrator. Currently, I am a faculty member in the Faculty of Education at Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. My M.Ed. and Ph.D. had a focus on the educational and linguistic experiences of children who moved from other countries to Canada.

Haiti Listening and Learning Trip: Pre-departure

In just a few hours we will be departing from Toronto to Miami and then on to Cap-Haitien, Haiti. Here's a map of where we are heading ... see if you can find Cap-Haitien:

Our team of 20 will be involved with a number of learning experiences including primary and secondary schools, universities, and Haitian NGOs that are working with women and children. There are 10 of us from Laurier on the team and the remainder are from school boards, businesses, other universities, and the Ontario Ministry of Education. It is a great group!

We will be posting reports on this blog every day and we hope that you enjoy following along virtually! You can also follow us on Twitter if you want more real-time updates and pictures: #LaurierHaiti2015.
