🌍 Hello Global GEG Hub!

My name is Claudia Fisanotti, and I’m proud to be one of the  GEG Italia 🇮🇹 leaders!

I’m passionate about education, innovation, and creating meaningful learning experiences that are inclusive and student-centered. As an educator, I love exploring how technology—especially Google for Education tools—can empower both teachers and students to connect, create, and grow.

In my journey with the GEG community, I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate, share best practices, and learn from inspiring educators around the world. One of my recent experiences includes connecting GEG Italia with GEG SPED Texas, where we exchanged ideas on inclusive teaching and practical strategies to support every learner.

I strongly believe in the power of community: when educators come together, amazing things happen ✨

Looking forward to learning with all of you, sharing ideas, and building something impactful together!
