Immy Page

Hello! My name is Immy Page and I am the homeroom teacher for Year 3 Blue. This will be my first year teaching at HeadStart. It is also my first time teaching in Phuket, however, I remember from previous visits how stunning the landscape is. I attended the University of Brighton (UK) and studied Journalism. Following this, I sought out working with and educating children. I taught sports to children in the USA, then when I returned to London I worked for a year as a teaching assistant in many different schools to gain valuable experience in the education sector. During 2016 in London, I completed my training as a qualified teacher and taught across Key Stage 1 and Year 3. I then embarked on the journey of teaching internationally. I have now taught across all year groups within Primary and have also taught in Egypt and China. What I love about my job is that I get to directly impact a pupil’s academic journey, it fills me with pride to see happy and motivated pupils! What I also love is that I am constantly learning new things from my pupils. It is wonderful that we all get to work within an environment where we get to share our cultures and passions. In class, I like to encourage plenty of partner and group work as it is essential to teach and learn from one another. I love playing games and setting challenges, sometimes I will even challenge the class in a ‘Teacher vs The Class’ competition. In my spare time, I love keeping active and love encouraging others to do so. I like to set myself challenges, which is why I love running because I have clear times I can aim to beat. Football is a huge passion of mine and I used to play a lot (recent ACL surgeries have sadly impacted that). Luckily, I support the greatest football in the World; Liverpool FC. I have also become very mindful about sustainability, and am constantly seeking out new information on the subject. Finally, I love movies and books, and love taking on quiz questions based on movies.
