Helen brings a diverse background in education, Adlerian psychology and Neuro-Linguistic Programming to her passion for effective instruction. She graduated from UC Santa Cruz with a degree in Environmental Studies, earned her teaching credential at CSU Fullerton (both too long ago to mention dates!) and completed UC Irvine’s eLearning Instructional Design program. Having previously been a “Canvas Ninja” at Santa Rosa Junior College, Helen enjoys showing instructors how to apply best pedagogical practices in Canvas to create dynamic courses that keep their students engaged.
