The Giubega kindergarten in Dolj County has become a model of innovation and dedication in preschool education, due to the unwavering commitment of special psychology teacher Mihaela Muscalagiu. Mihaela Muscalagiu, a finalist in the national campaign "Exceptional Teachers League", has transformed this kindergarten into an exemplar of an institution where modern education and community involvement converge to provide children with the optimal foundation for their future. Professor Mihaela Muscalagiu will be present at the awards event - "Exceptional Teachers Gala", which will take place on Thursday, July 18, 2024, 17:00, at the Metropolis Theatre in Bucharest.
Mihaela Muscalagiu has consistently demonstrated a commitment to enhancing pedagogical practices through the integration of technology in the educational sphere. She has effectively implemented digital platforms, including Livresq, Mozaweb, Classroom, and Wordwall, to develop engaging and interactive lessons that capture children's attention and stimulate their curiosity. These innovative approaches not only enrich the learning experience but also equip children with the digital competencies that are increasingly vital in today's digital age.
The teacher's active involvement in the local community and collaboration with various organisations have brought numerous benefits to her students. One notable achievement is the complete renovation of the kindergarten, an ambitious project that has transformed the educational space into a welcoming and modern environment. The construction of a football pitch and the organisation of an outdoor classroom were also initiatives that encouraged physical activity and learning in nature.
Mihaela Muscalagiu was able to equip classrooms with modern equipment through projects funded by Start NGO. Furthermore, the kindergarten benefited from new sports equipment and funds for libraries. These improvements have had a significant impact on the educational environment, providing preschoolers with a place where they can learn and develop harmoniously.
In coordinating a number of projects, teacher Mihaela Muscalagiu has demonstrated not only outstanding pedagogical skills, but also a remarkable ability to mobilise resources and create beneficial partnerships for education. Her efforts have been recognised at the national level, and her status as a finalist in the Exceptional Teachers League campaign is evidence of the positive impact she has had on the community and her students.
Mihaela Muscalagiu's story serves as an inspiration for all those engaged in the field of education. Through a combination of dedication, innovation and a clear vision for the future, she has succeeded in establishing an exemplary educational environment, thereby demonstrating that meaningful change is possible even in the smallest communities.
