About
Liliana F.
As a philosophy graduate I started my teaching career in international schools with the IBDP programme. In the many years I have had the opportunity to support both teachers and students in becoming successful at the IB Diploama Programme. I started and lead successfully the Philosophy Conference for IB students in Colombia, which is still running years after I left (Encuentro para Filosofar). I have lead the implementation of the MYP in two schools, and of DP in the school I am currently working in. My students are successful DP graduates, with former alumni having accomplished average grades of 36 and above, including some with 45 points diploma.
I can successfully support student in the research process of the Extended Essay, the Theory of Knowledge Essay, the development of subject knowledge in Social and Cultural Anthropology and Philosophy, including their Internal Assessment components both in English and Spanish
