Norma Carnicella
Math | Accredited math teacher for 23 years
I graduated from University of Miami with a Bachelor’s in Mathematics and Math Education. I then obtained my Master’s Degree in Mathematics Education from Nova Southeastern University. I have been teaching for over thirty years. 10 of those years were in Miami and Broward and the rest have been online.
Courses taught range from middle school math to credit recovery and GED to AP Calculus. Here is more:
After teaching over 10,000 students online and in brick and mortar schools, there has never been a complaint from a student, parent, or school site. These days. I feel like I can predict questions when I teach. I have taught every math subject many times, so I guarantee I have a solid understanding of the material. As a mom, it has become obvious that making adjustments for every learner is a must. As a former homeschool mom, my commitment is to respect the ideas of parents and guardians.

Marcela Nicolini
Advocate for Purposeful Learning
My journey in education began with the challenges of adapting to a new language and school system after immigrating to the U.S. at age seven. Those early struggles sparked a deep love for learning and a commitment to help others navigate similar paths. I earned a B.S. in Secondary Social Science Education from the University of South Florida and an M.Ed. in Educational Leadership from the University of Florida.
With over six years of classroom experience, I’ve taught AP Human Geography, AP World History, AP Economics, and Government at the high school level. I also founded Intrinsic Education to provide personalized learning plans that empower students to take ownership of their education.
As both an educator and a mom, I’m passionate about making learning meaningful and helping every student discover their unique path.
