Community Development, Experiencial Education

I am a teacher looking to expand beyond the typical classroom and get outdoors! My dream is to create an outdoor school or to work at one, so that everyday teaching is more hand on and creative. My favorite subject to teach is math and science, so I am excited to learn more about environmental education to incorperate into my curriculum. 

I am an environmental educator and interpretive guide for North Carolina State Parks. I have a passion for guiding others to a better understanding of land preservation and habitat conservation.

Focus on community-based education about the environment, and changing behaviors related to natural resources. Served as Executive Director of NAAEE, 2001-03; NAAEE President, 2001; Board of Directors: 1991-1993, 1994-1996; Committees: Membership (chair), Publicity, Conference, Research.

My name is Cecilia Mann. I am passionate about education, exploring and studying the outdoors. Outside of work, I spend my weekends and evenings outdoors, whether it be kayking,hiking or fishing.

I own and operate a small nature-based preschool out of my home in West Simsbury. I use the Reggio Emilia approach to teaching and learning in our school and go out in all weather, rain or shine!
