Experience

20 years of varied teaching experience, including: international education (US, AU and UK), literacy intervention, 11 Plus test prep, English Language Schools and freelance tuition.

Teaching style

I believe organization is key! I am firm but loving and strive to meet children where they are at (differentiation is a must). I believe in learning through play and guiding pupils to explore for themselves. I believe independent practice should be completed into notebooks .....never meaningless worksheets that end up in the garbage hours later. I am a big kid at heart and enjoy pouring enthusiasm into my lessons.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I will never forget my parent teacher conferences at the English language school I worked at in Melbourne, Australia. My families were refugees and immigrants, many who came from horrific experiences. That said the English I taught their children was a gift and would be the key to their future. Their gratitude was the most humbling and rewarding experience I've had.
