I'm
Bert Bassett.
International Inquiry-Based Educator
B
I am proud to have chosen to make my life work in Education. My professional evolution constantly expands as being an educator naturally requires you to be a lifelong learner. I believe that by providing student agency and stimulating inquiry that is relevant to each child, we create lifelong learners who will contribute to a global community.
After teaching for seven years in Austin, Texas, I took the leap with my family into the world of international education. Over the past eight years, I have been a part of learning communities in Vietnam, Qatar, Thailand, China, and Japan where I have discovered the thrilling universe of International Education that pushes revolutionary pedagogical practices. Thus, transforming education, my life and the lives of children as we know it.
