Thank you, Thank you…

I could hardly conjugate verbs when I got the news!
I feel deeply honoured and grateful for LSIS recognising my work.
This award means a lot to me.
You know that normally men are more into technology and gadgets. My husband is one of those. And he used to spend hours talking about all these great things you can do with technology and all these indispensable machines. Normally, we women say: yeah, yeah… whatever… But my husband would never stop, so I decided to start paying attention and actually started to enjoy, I became a techie enthusiast and realised that I could bring these wonderful pieces of technology into my teaching.
So, the first person to thank is my husband.
I would also like to thank Scott Hallman, who was the first person who believed in my work and invited me to take part of the e-learning world.
A big thank you to my manager, David Goldenberg, for nominating me and being the best manager in the world for letting me do whatever I want and for supporting all my crazy ideas.
And last but not the least, thanks to all the teachers in WAES who are keen on everything I suggest in terms of embedding technology in their teaching. They are my NIKE teachers – they “Just do it!”
I wish all the teachers accepted change like this group of special people did… Because this is not about technology, it is about changing the way you do things, change the way you teach.
It will be a pleasure to carry on doing my best and contribute for a better teaching and learning experience.
Thank you! Thank you!
