At the intersection of
Digital Literacy, Digital Pedagogy, and Intercultural Learning
Coach, teacher trainer, lecturer, consultant, learning designer
A few words about myself:
I am a passionate, experienced educator, advocating for a connected learning pedagogical approach that prepares learners for life in an evolving networked society.
I have been a pioneer in collaborative online intercultural learning (since 2009) and have initiated countless cross-cultural virtual exchanges that have had institutional and national impact. Forever an innovator and educational leader, I helped develop virtual schooling for EFL in pre Covid times, was influential with the transition to distance learning during the pandemic- training hundreds of educators- and later with the introduction of blended learning and blended mobility for internationalization in Higher Ed.
What have I been up to lately?
In the last decade I have worked as consultant, coach, lecturer and teacher trainer, specializing in Digital Pedagogy, Digital Literacy and the Internationalization of Education (Home mobility). Currently, I am a lecturer in Digital Literacy and innovative pedagogy in B.Ed. English teaching programmes. And I am currently writing a book on Digital Literacy for the English classroom for Delta Publishing.

" I have experienced a significant personal development during three years of learning with Susana, as she combines rich pedagogical knowledge in the sessions. The meaningful discussions we hold have helped me understand how my students' learning can be enhanced by effectively integrating the use of a range of tools, aligned with the objectives and the context. My various courses have become more accurately tailored as a result of selecting suitable tools. Susana has guided me in refining both goals and pathways for my students' development. She teaches me to learn tools intuitively and independently, an approach I adopt with my students as well."
