Andrew Bieronski served as the Technology Enabled Learning and Teaching (TELT) consultant for the Waterloo Region District School Board in Ontario, Canada for 6 years, and as a secondary educator for a decade prior to that. He is passionate about reimagining and redesigning classrooms and schools to best prepare youth for a quickly changing world and supports educators across K-12 in this work. Andrew looks to leverage technology to modernize pedagogy and assessment practices to improve learning and achievement for both students and adults, and is a frequent conference presenter on these topics. This led him to take on the role of Growth and Community Lead at Quizizz, an educational technology company that is a leader in supporting educators with generative artificial intelligence tools in the classroom to foster student learning and engagement. Andrew recently finished his Masters of Education with a focus on research in the areas of innovation in educational organizations and the use of artificial intelligence in educational settings.

Andrew is an award recipient of grants from the Ontario Ministry of Education for both the Teacher Leadership and Learning Program (TLLP) and the Provincial Knowledge Exchange (PKE) to conduct innovative action research in education, working with other educators to develop their teaching practice, and was recognized by the Ontario eLearning Consortium (OeLC) with their award for Supporting Boards and Students in eLearning. He has served as an educational technology mentor to startup companies that have been a part of the University of Waterloo's Velocity program, and works with small, medium and large edtech companies as a consultant and advisor. Andrew is the founder and director of TEDxKitchenerED, a TEDx event focused on the future of education, and the talks from this event have accumulated over 1,000,000+ views online.
