Born in the beautiful islands of Trinidad and Tobago, Shenelle has incorporated her culture within her mathematics classroom and research. She merges mathematics and music within her lessons, which transforms her classroom into a unique experience. She has been teaching since 2013 and is now gifted certified in Georgia and College Board certified in AP Precalculus and AP Statistics. Since then, she has been “Teacher of the Year” three times and was the recipient of the “Florida’s Best and Brightest” Grant.
Currently, she is a doctoral student in Georgia State University’s Teaching and Learning PhD program, with a research interest in The Impact of Using Virtual Reality as an Experiential Learning Tool in Mathematics Education. She holds a Masters degree in Mathematics Education from the University of Florida and two Bachelor’s degrees, in Mathematics and Music, from Florida Memorial University, where she was the valedictorian of her graduating class.
She has contributed to the music education field within Trinidad and Tobago, by organizing festivals and workshops, in which youth of her nation are exposed to international music experts. This gained her program the prestigious Hummingbird Medal (Gold) which is one of the highest culture awards within her country.
Such success in the music education field has inspired her to expand her national contributions to mathematics education. She has decided to use her passion for culture, music, and mathematics to make future contributions to the Ethnomathematics field. Her ultimate goal is to transform mathematics classroom, to a more relatable and culturally inclusive space, where students can find their identity and voice within mathematics.
Shenelle speaks about using music, culture and technology as a teaching tool for higher level mathematics; creation of new content using virtual reality to develop experiential learners; her doctoral journey at Georgia State University; balancing all aspects of life; the inspiration and support of family and bringing excitement and joy into high school mathematics.
