Thank you for choosing StudioBlended. If you are curious about the independent senior advisor, teacher trainer and founder of the Studio:

Tikvah Breimer graduated cum laude in Anthropology and Development Sociology (2006) with a thesis of the year on legitimate democratisation, and continued with a Master’s Degree in International Education and Teaching (U-Teach). She later graduated with distinction in a Master’s degree in Urban Management and Development (UMD) with a thesis on whether the architectural open building (modular) concept makes sense for affordable housing for the poor in (peri-)urban areas outside Europe.

It was as a teacher and teacher trainer in the International Baccalaureate (IBO) system for secondary schools, that she was first introduced to a robust methodology for designing interdisciplinary curricula andan educational philosophy that makes the teacher take central stage.

She realized though, that she missed the depth of her subject and the international arena too much to stay in secondary schools.

Combining research with practice, she went on to teach as a lecturer at an institute for capacity development of professionals and academics at IHS Erasmus University Rotterdam (EUR).

Her technical field of specialisation is in land markets and access to affordable serviced land. This field is very much geared towards looking at structural factors and longer time-horizons. She soon became involved in educational pilots and innovation at the institute.

Being passionate for applying knowledge and understanding in reality on the ground, she eventually left academia, working as mid-level programme officer and then project lead in two large UK based NGOs. Amongst others she worked on access to safe and affordable water (WASH).

She inevitably became involved in capacity development internationally again – this time remotely.

As lockdowns hit the world, she realized how much more organically she could go about her working life, now that she was able to create her own rhythm.

In fact, she realized this autonomy greatly boosted her performance. She became interested in neuroscience and brain-based approaches to effective educational design, and embodied knowledge about the wellbeing of the teacher/trainer.

When she eventually lost her to the economic crisis as donations dried out, she decided to make the switch and not go back to formal job settings again, but start her own studio as a European based non profit foundation.

A Studio with a passion to bridge silos between your (urban, climate, architecture) content and its pedagogy, and the body of knowledge and practice of effective curriculum design.

Find the Studio’s shared valuesystem, that guides all our work, in our manifesto.

We are here especially for you as unique professional, to come alongside you and partner with you, as you work on a (climate / urban / architecture) curriculum, so that you can offer effective and resilient education in all simplicity.
