I have worked as a school teacher for 18 years, before I became a teacher educator. I have acted as the Head of Teacher Education programs abroad as well as at the University of Bergen in Norway.

In 2013 I was one of the founders of the International Forum for Teacher Educator Professional Development (InFo-TED) an acted as the Coordinator of this forum till 2019. I am a member of international editorial boards of a number of scientif journals.
During my career numerous articles, book chapters and books have been published, and I have been fortunate to have given invited talks in Australia, New Zealand, China, Dubai, Korea, Singapore, Africa, USA, South America, Europe, Israel, and Norway.
