Erin Tinti brings excitement and passion for education to her work at CVEDC. She earned her Bachelors in Adolescent English Education from SUNY Cortland in 2010, completed her Masters in Teaching English Language Arts at Teachers College, Columbia University in 2015, and finished her Doctorate in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies at the University of Vermont in 2024 where her research focus primarily centered around teacher self-efficacy, curriculum design, and teaching writing.

Erin has worked in education for over 15 years, teaching and coaching hundreds of students and more recently working with classroom teachers on curriculum and teaching practices as a curriculum coordinator. Her excitement for working with teachers in all content areas to further their professional goals and personal self-efficacy views led her to CVEDC. She hopes to continue to make an impact on education in Vermont by facilitating exciting professional development opportunities for educators in Vermont, in turn improving success outcomes for students.
