SPECIAL INITIATIVE: HONORED INNOVATOR AWARD
In partnership with Facebook, we are proud to present the Honored Innovator Award: a 6-month special initiative recognizing teachers innovating in the classroom during COVID.
HONORED INNOVATOR: NOVEMBER 2021
Andrew Samulewicz
Lower Merion High School
Ardmore, Pennsylvania
“I had Mr. Samulewicz during the COVID-19 pandemic, most of his lessons were built around rapport building with students. His lessons are professional-grade compositions of videos, brief and engaging slide show lectures, and interactive platforms such as Nearpod, Gimkit, etc. The videos that he uses for his lessons as a substitute for a boring lecture work flawlessly and they allow students to take notes and absorb content at their own pace.”
- Tommy M., Nominator
