Mathematics Teacher | Chess Coach | Holistic Education & IB Curriculum Research · 8 years experience
Short professional summary
Brazilian mathematics teacher with a strong academic background and hands-on experience in basic education, specialized in competition mathematics and the use of chess as a pedagogical resource. My teaching philosophy centers on holistic education, connecting the Greek concept of paideia to the IB's Theory of Knowledge framework. I am currently deepening my expertise in IB pedagogy through comparative academic research (IB vs. BNCC) as part of my professional master's degree, while also studying Mandarin in preparation for international opportunities in China. I am seeking positions at IB international schools where I can bring this distinctive approach to teaching mathematics.
