 Classroom Facilitation, Curriculum Design & DEIB Facilitation

“Her teaching is so original in the way that it doesn’t ever feel like school, it’s like learning life lessons from the world’s coolest aunt.”
CHARLIE-Student Review

I provide…

  • Classroom teaching and facilitation with adults and young people

  • Curriculum development design and thought partnering in and out of the classroom

  • Facilitation with organizations, community groups, schools and businesses

I offer a fresh energy and creativity for and with groups and teams of people needing a facilitator for team building, relationship and community building, dialogue and reflection, play and connection, repair work and nurturing a sense of belonging.

I am skilled with both youth and adults and can support creating your vision/s for your groups needs and implementation through facilitation. I am ready to work with your specific goals.

I am passionate about community education and holding a container of learning and connecting that feels alive with curiosity, builds trust, allows and honors a growth mindset, celebration and encouragement, and empowering fun.

“Thanks to Ortega’s skillful facilitation, students have learned to push past the basics. Her facilitation is a microcosm of all her expertise offered, all of which encourage advocacy, compassion, deeper consideration and joy in community care and development.”
