I am an IBDP biology, and secondary science teacher, who currently works in an international school in Spain. I am passionate about biology, its study, history, philosophy, and its pedagogy.

The posts on this blog have helped me to reflect about the deep ideas of biology-specific pedagogy and I also write to find conversation with other teachers of similar interests.

I am fluent in Spanish (DELE C2 certified) if you want to converse in that language.
