Hello!
My name is Natalie Nwaeme (pronounced nweh-meh), and I am a Learning and Development Specialist and Curriculum Designer. I have experience in creating and facilitating immersive and meaningful learning experiences for adult professionals and students in grades 4 – 8, and I also have experience in curriculum writing for medium to large school districts. My background as a former middle school reading teacher informs my creatively engaging and technology-enhanced approach to learning design.
I entered the field of education via the educational nonprofit, Teach For America, and as such, I am truly passionate about ensuring all learners have access to an engaging, high-quality education and the opportunity to succeed. Another thing that drives me is my own love for learning because I know that to be a great teacher, you must be willing to learn (and then apply your knowledge).
Education is a vital key to opportunity, and I am committed to using my skills and passion to help all learners reach their full potential. I have worked on a variety of projects that have helped improve educational outcomes for students in diverse communities and increased performance and productivity in adult professionals alike. It would be my pleasure if you click here to read about some projects I have worked on.
I’d love to explore new opportunities, take on new challenges, and I am open to new projects that can leverage my skillset. Additionally, I am always eager to collaborate with others to create mutually beneficial partnerships and expand my professional network.
