Stephen Pellerine now has 25 years in Education, and most roles were linked to Educational Leadership. He started his career in Education in 1997 where he was Headmaster of an International School in Tanzania. He then moved to Japan where he was both instructor and area mentor of 48 schools in North Japan, while at the same time lecturing at Shokei University. Following almost 8 years in Japan he found himself invited to the Middle East where he took on several roles, he integrated technology and provided teacher training activities. He had been in several professional initiatives with Harvard and Stanford Universities aimed at formal teacher development and system wide enhancement of a college system across the United Arab Emirates. Additionally, with a background in Media Arts he helped develop a Degree Granting Program in Applied Communications. Due to academic interests in alternative pedagogies and literacy studies he found himself in Ethiopia testing and trialing educational alternatives and this led him to a position at Oxford University where he went to formally investigate educational alternatives to assist at risk populations and to promote gender equity. He found himself at The Southern University of Science and Technology, in China following his research with Oxford. 
Academically Stephen holds an MA in Computing in Education (looking at how computers facilitate instruction) from Columbia University, and an MSc from Oxford (looking at alternative pedagogies and policy for educational intervention). He holds numerous diploma’s, from formal study, in different fields: photography, fashion design, make up art, engineering, and is a certified swim coach. 
Personally, he enjoys running and has a past of ultradistance sports as a former sponsored Ironman athlete (4 km swim, 180 km bike, 42 km run). He has run over 15, 42 km marathons and 3, 50km plus events. He is still an active runner today. He likes to design fashion, take photos, and is a novelist having written amateur-level fiction. He is an active drummer and enjoys tinkering with his guitar (the guitar is just for fun). 
His Educational Philosophy is one that empowers each individual student, supports teacher initiatives, and seeks to be part of systems in which the collective intellect of both the classroom and institute thrive from the learner and faculty diversity.
