Nadine Slavinski

After an early career in archaeology, Nadine Slavinski made the switch to education, earning a Master's Degree in Education from Harvard University. She has been teaching in international schools since 1996.

Her "Lesson Plans / Hands-On Learning" books draw on her teaching experience and familiarity with a wide range of international education programs. She enjoys teaching in the classroom as well as in non-traditional settings.

A lifelong sailor, Slavinski has taken two extensive sabbaticals with her husband and young son aboard their 35 foot sloop, sailing the Atlantic and Pacific oceans while home schooling. These trips inspire her fiction works, which follow the adventures of memorable characters in exotic locations and vividly capture the fun, fascinating world of globe-trotting sailors.
