Hello from sunny Orlando, Florida! I’m Dawn Lang. I grew up in the Midwest and lived in Colorado before moving to Florida. I completed a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education, followed by a Master’s in Information and Learning Technologies/Instructional Design.
My passion for teaching started in third grade and continues today! As an educator, technology trainer, instructional designer, and facilitator/producer of virtual training, I have had the opportunity to work with a variety of stakeholders in all different contexts to support their learning and application of skills and knowledge.
As a trainer, I want to inspire and empower people to reach their full potential. Consistently incorporating fun and laughter, connecting, and respecting others are elements I incorporate into each workshop. I’ve been with Langevin Learning Services since 2015.
I love spending time outside doing just about anything, but particularly playing tennis, riding bikes, being in the mountains, as well as hanging out at the pool or the beach! I also enjoy spending time with family, baking, reading (especially mysteries),and playing card or board games. Spending time with family is always a priority.
My biggest influences have been my family, including my parents and kids. Now that my kids are grown, I have found that I want to slow down and savor every moment, surrounding myself with the people I love and care most about, because these moments are too precious to rush through.
Reflection has always been a BIG part of my development process. Incorporating and adding new tools to my “toolbox” that improve my instruction and ultimately student learning is also important to me. My favorite moments with Langevin so far have involved supporting other trainers as they add tools to their “toolbox” and witnessing those “AHA!” moments they express when new learning occurs.
