New Mexico, United States, 7th May 2025 — Mary Faith Bate-Silva, a dynamic instructional leader and certified STEM educator, is gaining national recognition for her innovative contributions to science education, literacy advancement, and equitable academic programming across underserved communities.

STEM Educator Mary Faith Bate-Silva Recognized for Contributions to Literacy and STEM Equity

With over a decade of experience spanning the Philippines and the United States, Bate-Silva has become a distinguished force in curriculum design, instructional coaching, and educational reform. She currently serves as an Academic Instructional Coach and Curriculum & Instruction Specialist for K–12 educators at Shiprock Associated Schools under the Bureau of Indian Education, where she supports transformative practices in classrooms across the Navajo Nation.

A cornerstone of her scholarly contributions is her internationally published, peer-reviewed article, “A Phenomenological Inquiry into the Conduct of English Language Arts Standards During Distance Learning,” featured in The International Journal of Educational Research and Technology. Available at IJTER, this timely study examines systemic barriers in ELA instruction during the pandemic and offers actionable, data-driven strategies that now influence educator professional development globally.

Among her most prestigious accolades, Bate-Silva was nominated for the 2023–2024 Presidential Awards for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching (PAEMST). She has also been appointed by the New Mexico Public Education Department (NMPED) as a Review Panelist for STEM and literacy instructional materials. Her role includes mentoring and facilitating in NMPED’s Advancement Program, guiding emerging teacher leaders through licensure and professional growth pathways.

In a highly competitive selection, Bate-Silva was named one of only eight educators nationwide to contribute to the CELL-MET EEK! curriculum initiative, a National Science Foundation-funded program promoting engineering and health science integration at the K–12 level. She has developed grade band STEM content for NMPED’s statewide instructional scope and served in critical roles such as School Testing Coordinator, WIDA Curriculum Specialist, and State Item Writer for NM-MSSA assessments in reading and math.

Her achievements are underscored by a portfolio of international credentials, including certifications as a PLTW Educator (Project Lead The Way), TESOL Specialist, Microsoft-certified educator, and Educational Leader licensed in the Philippines and New Mexico. She is also a National Board Certification Candidate, reflecting her ongoing pursuit of instructional excellence.

Bate-Silva is completing a second Master of Arts in Education focusing on English Language Teaching at St. Paul University Dumaguete. She continues to shape the field by advocating for culturally responsive pedagogy, student-centered innovation, and high-impact educator development.

Her leadership spans initiatives such as Kagan Cooperative Learning, CELI-MET Curriculum Advisory, and partnerships with Western New Mexico University for mentoring resident teachers. Across New Mexico’s rural districts and Indigenous-serving schools, she is driving meaningful reform in academic equity, instructional quality, and workforce readiness.

Mary Faith Bate-Silva is a national exemplar of what STEM and literacy leadership can look like when fueled by vision, inclusivity, and sustained commitment. Her impact is not just reshaping classrooms—it is setting a new standard for the future of public education in America.

JC Dental Como Chinese-Speaking Dentist Providing Trusted Kids Dentistry in Manning

Published

on

Australia, 18th Jul 2025, JC Dental Como, a respected dental clinic based in the Como and Manning areas, has expanded its services to include specialised dental care for children and teenagers up to 17 years of age. Recognised for its focus on clinical excellence and patient comfort, the clinic now offers trusted kids’ dentistry in a welcoming and supportive environment designed to encourage positive early dental experiences.

Located at Suite 3/2 Downey Drive, Como, JC Dental provides a full suite of services including general dentistry, cosmetic treatments, braces & clear aligner treatment, and emergency dental care. The introduction of dedicated dental care for children reflects the clinic’s commitment to supporting oral health across all stages of life.

A notable strength of JC Dental Como is its ability to provide culturally sensitive care, particularly to Chinese-speaking families. The clinic offers services in both Mandarin and Cantonese, enabling clearer communication and enhanced trust between clinicians and patients.

Dr Jia Jing Teh, spokesperson for JC Dental Como, commented on the service expansion, “For many children, attending a dental appointment can feel unfamiliar or intimidating. The focus at JC Dental Como is to create a warm and calming environment where young patients feel secure and supported. Providing care in Mandarin or Cantonese helps ensure Chinese-speaking families feel informed and reassured throughout the process.”

The clinic’s child-focused dental services include routine check-ups, preventative care such as fluoride treatments and fissure sealants, as well as early intervention for developmental concerns. Educational support is also a priority, with dental professionals offering advice on proper brushing and flossing techniques, and the role of a balanced diet in maintaining healthy teeth and gums.

JC Dental Como also participates in the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS), a Medicare-funded programme providing eligible children with access to a range of essential dental services. These include examinations, cleans, fillings, and other preventative treatments. Families are encouraged to check their eligibility and utilise this programme to support their children’s oral health.

Dr Teh further emphasised the importance of a strong foundation in oral care, “Early experiences at the dentist play a major role in shaping long-term attitudes towards oral health. The aim is to ensure every appointment is as relaxed and positive as possible. This helps young patients build familiarity with dental care and reduces the risk of future dental anxiety. For families who speak Mandarin or Cantonese, the ability to communicate directly in their preferred language creates a more comfortable and transparent experience.”

JC Dental Como continues to prioritise comfort and quality through modern technologies and evidence-based techniques tailored for younger patients. The clinic’s child-friendly environment is designed to make each visit pleasant and stress-free, with an emphasis on gentle and effective care.

Plans are underway to develop the clinic’s children’s services further and deepen its ties with the Manning community, “Ongoing investment in children’s dental care remains a priority,” added Dr Teh. “This includes continuous enhancement of clinical services, cultural responsiveness, and accessibility for all families, especially those from Chinese-speaking backgrounds. The long-term goal is to ensure every child has access to high-quality, respectful dental care.”

JC Dental Como’s expansion of services reinforces its position as a trusted provider of family-focused dentistry. With a strong emphasis on prevention, education, and inclusivity, the clinic aims to contribute to the lifelong oral health of children across the local community.
