Background

About Miguel Torres

As a dedicated Director of Digital Learning, I am passionate about transforming education by integrating neuroscience principles and innovative technology to empower both teachers and students. With over 10 years of international experience in digital education and leadership, I have successfully led transformative projects and initiatives. Notably, I led the 'Microsoft Accreditation Project,' training and certifying an entire school in digital proficiency, and developed bespoke training plans through the 'Training for Everyone' project, empowering staff at all levels. My role as the Director of Digital Learning has positioned me at the forefront of integrating educational technology, where I’ve led workshops such as 'Reading Progress' and contributed as a keynote speaker at global conferences, including the 'Digital Leaders Conference' in London (2023). My dedication to fostering innovative, student-centric learning environments is highlighted through initiatives like 'Cognita Internet Day' and international collaborations such as 'Connecting with Me,' which linked students across Cognita schools worldwide. Beyond project leadership, I bring a unique blend of skills, including multilingual communication (English, Spanish, Italian), problem-solving, and emotional intelligence honed through years of experience in diverse educational settings. My passion for neuroscience and psychology, complemented by my postgraduate studies at King’s College London, informs my ability to design strategies that align with how students learn and thrive. I am always eager to connect with fellow educators, innovators, and leaders in the field. Let’s collaborate to empower the future of education through neuroscience and technology.
