Hello, Sawadee Ka, and Kia Ora! I was raised in the Bay of Plenty; which can be found on the North Island of New Zealand. After successfully completing my high school education, I studied Psychology and Philosophy at the University of Otago in Dunedin; a town that recently regained its record for having the steepest street in the world! I began my career in education in Prague in 2015, where I worked as an ESL teacher for professionals who wished to develop their English language abilities. I soon realized I had a passion for teaching, so I also started work in an English language school for students aged four upwards. I enjoyed the working with children immensely, which lead me to further develop my education and I completed my International Post Graduate Certificate in Education in 2019. I have been teaching in Phuket since 2018 and I joined the HeadStart community in 2019. During my time at this school I have been amazed by the dedication and professionalism of my colleagues here. I have also been impressed by the love of learning that the students of this school have. Every day is wonderful and different and it is a joy to inspire and educate the children of this school. During lessons I strive for all children in my class to make outstanding progress in all facets of their education. It is a real joy to see their development over the year. I believe that children are capable of so much and it is our duty as parents and educators to ensure that we provide all the support and facilities necessary to help them reach their potential. If you ever have any questions then please feel free to contact me to discuss them; if we are all working together to achieve the same goals then we will ensure the students not only make rapid progress but also enjoy their time at school and develop a love of learning.
