    Bio

    I am a teacher by profession with a passion for lifelong learning, digital empowerment, and transforming education through technology. My journey into EdTech started with a desire to blend traditional teaching with modern digital tools helping both educators and learners unlock their full potential.

    As an EduTech trainer, I support teachers in using ICT to enhance their classrooms and make learning more interactive and inclusive. In 2023, I became a proud alumna of the Women Empowerment Program (#WEP2023), which further strengthened my mission to use tech for good. I also support children to create digital projects through EduTech Clubs. Visit https://norahbetsy.org/projects-services/ for more about my services.

    Let’s connect and create together I love collaborating on education and tech projects, speaking at events, or simply sharing stories that inspire.

    WordPress Origin Story

    Started using WordPress in 2021, helping my uncle post content on his WordPress powered elearning platform. I’m an active member of the WordPress community, where I’ve had the incredible opportunity to contribute in various roles:
    Organizing Team Member for:
    WordCamp Jinja 2022
    WordCamp Jinja 2023
    Website Projects Competition 2024
    Speaker & Trainer at the Kids Camp during WordCamp Kampala 2023, where I inspired young minds to explore the world of websites.
    Volunteer at WordCamp Mukono 2025, supporting the vibrant local tech ecosystem.
    Speaker at WordCamp Masaka 2025
    Speaker at the up coming WordCamp Lira 2025
    These experiences have not only strengthened my leadership and collaboration skills but also connected me with amazing people in the open-source and digital learning space.
