She incorporated theory of knowledge questions in her lessons as well as nature of science creating discussions thus allowing students to become inquirers. The students were able to develop the IB learner profile during lessons as they progressed throughout the course. This was evidenced by their assessment and highest IB results in the school's history, individual conversations and message of appreciation. Doreen has completed Cat 1 training for IB chemistry and MYP science training.
