About the store
I have been teaching English Language Arts for over 20 years now.
My first job was at an English Institute where I taugh kids of different ages. I learnt a lot about creating resources as I did not have a co-teacher to plan with!
Two years later, I started at a school teaching at elementary level. I had from Y1 to Y6 during 11 years. I loved working with other teachers, planning together and sharing ideas!
After having my second child, I decided I needed a change. I wanted to try with older kids. I started working at high school level. It’s been 9 years and I think I’ve found my niche! I love teaching adolescents and planning different and new activities for them. I’ve realized that I enjoy creating resources to use with my students!
