María Barberis

Maria Barberis is an educational leader, teacher trainer, and author passionate about transforming classrooms into cultures of thinking. Throughout her career, she has been deeply committed to helping educators translate Visible Thinking and Teaching for Understanding (TfU) into meaningful and sustainable learning experiences.
Since 2012, Maria has worked closely with the ideas developed at Project Zero, supporting teachers in making students’ thinking visible and fostering more reflective, engaged classrooms. Her work is grounded in more than twenty-five years of leadership at Colegio Marín, where she served as Head of the English Department (Primary and Secondary), IBDP Coordinator, and School Principal. These roles shaped her belief that school communities flourish when both teachers and students feel valued, heard, and intellectually challenged.
She currently serves as a teacher trainer at ESSARP (English Speaking Scholastic Association of the River Plate) and works as an Educational Consultant with schools in Northern Buenos Aires, accompanying leadership teams and teachers in their professional growth.
Maria is co-author of Las Tecnologías en (y para) la Educación (FLACSO, Uruguay) and El Aula Vivencial: de la clase recitada a la experiencia de aprendizaje (Editorial Bonum), publications that reflect her ongoing interest in bridging theory and practice.
Her academic background includes a Professorship in English from Pontificia Universidad Católica Argentina (UCA), a Diploma in ELT Management from University of Surrey, and an MA in Education Management from Universidad Nacional de San Martín (UNSAM).
