Melissa Dent

I am an experienced educator with a passion for cultivating curiosity, ingenuity, and risk-taking in my students, recently recognized by the Prime Minister for teaching excellence in STEM. I love to use technology combined with adventure to immerse students in active learning to become better global citizens. I am passionate about finding new and dynamic ways to facilitate lifelong learners to discover their zeal. I have worked as an educational technology consultant, an esports coach, and an Art, Music and Virtual teacher K-12. I am a committed learner who teaches grade 7/8 in Southern Ontario with Lambton Kent DSB.
