Hi! I’m Melissa.

I’m an educator & designer currently studying for my post grad at UBC’s Master’s of Ed.Tech program. I live a pretty slow life out in the Japanese countryside with a marshmallow-tinted shiba inu named Wolf. My work mainly entails EFL specific action research in digital spaces.

Case study 1:

Research methods and presentation for Grade 1 & 2 of Japanese SHS students.

A pilot program to build research skills, digital fluency, and
