Hello! I'm Pierette
I am a professor, researcher, and journal peer reviewer with experience in primary, elementary, and secondary education. My specialty is the use of the theory of multiple intelligences in the teaching of foreign languages, specifically English. My experience in the teaching application with a constructivist and pragmatist approach has given me the opportunity to see excellent results while meeting the needs of students. Additionally, I have carried out different research projects related to the themes of unaccompanied refugee minors and gender violence.
