About Me
Hi and welcome to “My Love 4 Learning”!
My name is Thais and in this space I will share my knowledge and tips to help you create online learning solutions.
If you want to learn about instructional design, learning theories, authoring tools, Learning Management Systems (LMS), technologies used in education and how to develop eLearning, then this is your place.
MY STORY
Before becoming an eLearning designer, I worked as an electronic engineer for 10 years. During my engineering career, I had the opportunity to write instruction manuals, technical documentation and provide training about the systems I worked with (automation, control systems, servers, databases, etc).
With time, I discovered that the part I enjoyed most about my work was sharing my knowledge and teaching others how to use those particular systems and technologies.
To build better training for my colleagues I studied a “Certificate IV in Training and Assessment” and I did a master’s degree in “Instructional Design and Technology” with a specialization in Online Learning and a “Graduate Certificate in Digital Education”. Since 2015 I have been working in the learning and development field creating eLearning solutions in the corporate sector.
Other topics of my interest are Virtual Reality/Augmented Reality for training purposes, digital media assets (animations, videos and 3D images) and games.
WHAT YOU WILL FIND IN THIS SITE
Here you will find many tips and tricks to get you started in this beautiful field of eLearning. I will also share information about learning theories, instructional strategies, current trends in this industry, real examples and tools to help you grow in your eLearning career.
MY PURPOSE
The main goals of this site are:
- To have a collection of resources that other professionals in this field can use.
- To help any eLearning enthusiast, no matter the level, to design and develop eLearning solutions.
- To share the love and knowledge for the use of technology in education.
If you have any questions, please feel free to leave them below and I will be more than happy to help you out.
Thanks for visiting this site 🙂

I am really impressed with your website Thais.The way you have set it up shows your intellect in your field and how you are an expert in your niche.
Thanks so much John 😀 your comment is so encouraging. I really appreciate it.
I sincerely say thank you for your useful information and your kind.
Thanks so much for your comment ?
Hi Thais,
I L.O.V.E. your easy-to-read website, the colours, and the ab-fab content! I have just started a micromasters course in Instructional Design. Lots of BIG WORDS, like heutagogy, which, btw, is what led me to your site. Your explanation of the ‘PAH continuum’, your cocktail glass with the three ‘gogies’ :)) is succinct and clear. You have a gift for clarity, in presentation and content delivery!
May I come to you for assistance as I navigate my new course? I am from the Fred & Wilma Flintstone era of learning. digital media are unknown territory! Yikes!
I really, really want to learn how to (while playing with the software) design and produce my own infographics learning designs. Got any tips or ideas?
Maybe I should have sent an email…this is becoming an essay!
Thanks again for the amazing and very helpful content!
