Grade 4 Teacher
I have been in Cambodia for 7 years now after a further 7 teaching back in the UK. I’m really excited about joining the team at EWIS – where my daughter, Chona, will also begin in Grade 3 this year.
I have a bachelor’s degree in Philosophy and Sociology and a PGCE out of the University of Brighton. Experience in managerial roles in previous schools have required me to reflect on different educational approaches further. I am a keen advocate of project-based learning and Pie Corbett’s storytelling program to teach writing, which I have found to be extremely effective, especially in the context of the ELL classroom.
Outside of the classroom I am into a range of sports, including football and tennis. I also play music often and am very much looking forward to becoming a part of Jake and Eugenio’s super cool school band.
It’s been a great break for myself and my family, plenty of adventures had, but now I am excited to get back into the classroom, and meet new colleagues and students.
