Bachelor of Arts Primary Education from University of Wales Trinity Saint David

I’m from Wales and decided to move to Kuwait where I began teaching internationally. I worked in the EYFS for three years in a setting that provided children with many explorative learning opportunities. This is where I found my true passion for inquiry-based learning. I then moved to Tbilisi, Georgia and taught in Year 2 for two years. As much as I loved Early Years I really enjoyed the opportunity to work in a new year group and to gain more experience in teaching. I have worked at EtonHouse Thomson for one year and I have loved the experience!

I believe children should be provided with opportunities to learn through exploration, collaboration and play. I aim to create a nurturing learning environment that is secure, caring and stimulating. Every classroom presents a unique community of learners that varies in abilities and needs. Therefore, getting to know each individual child is very important to me as I aim to ensure every child is provided with endless opportunities that allows their confidence and learning to flourish. Children’s well-being is also an important aspect of teaching and learning. I encourage children to express their emotions and to communicate thoughts and feelings with others, whilst ensuring all children feel their contributions are respected and valued. As an educator, my main aim is to foster a love of learning and support the holistic development of each child. In my spare time I enjoy walking and exploring. A recent interest of mine is photography and videography and I really enjoy capturing the new places I visit. I also love travelling and I am very grateful for the amazing countries I have had the opportunity to visit!

I am originally from Queensland, Australia and have been fortunate to have worked as a Primary and Early Years teacher in England, Singapore and Japan for over 20 years.  I began teaching the International Baccalaureate Curriculum four years ago and found the principles and pedagogy of this system to be completely aligned with my own beliefs about learning and teaching so I am greatly looking forward to continuing my journey with you at EtonHouse Orchard. I am passionate about supporting each child to take ownership of their learning and acknowledging that they have their own voice to be heard and valued. I believe strongly in the power of giving children opportunities to explore and discover for themselves as well as in collaboration with peers and teachers. I am honoured to be able to support each child’s growth, sharing and celebrating their interests, discoveries and progress with them and the learning community and helping to inspire a life-long love of learning.  In my spare time I enjoy going to the theatre, drawing or spending time in bookstores and cafes. I am an incorrigible collector of picture books.

I am a passionate IB PYP facilitator with over 19 years of experience spread across International Baccalaureate schools. I see each child as a unique individual who benefits the most from a motivating and nurturing environment. I try to sow seeds of independence, inquiry, choice and action that create a love for learning within children. For me, the process is equally important as the product as it provides a wide variety of learning experiences that develop thinking, reasoning, decision-making, and problem-solving abilities which are essential for young learners of today.  The most fulfilling aspect of my role as an educator is witnessing the growth in children through their smiles, enhanced confidence, overcoming challenges, or evolving into responsible citizens and lifelong learners. Beyond the classroom, I moved to Singapore in 2016 with my family and enjoy the diversity the country has to offer. I love finding new ways of making my daughter’s learning experiences enjoyable. I like to travel, spend quality time with family and friends, play games, and explore artistic and aesthetic work. Since 2019, I have been a part of the Etonhouse community and am excited to continue this journey, I look forward to meeting the children and families at Etonhouse Orchard.
