Language Adventurist

I have worked four years in the Caribbean as a foreign language teacher and two years in Dubai as a PYP KG1 homeroom teacher at an international school.Next, at an International school in the Netherlands as a PYP KG1 homeroom teacher and my final job was working as an ELL teacher for lower elemantary classes in Macau.

My approach to teaching is student-centered, inclusive and empowering. I organize an environment for students that aims to nurture their holistic development, be it their academic, physical, emotional and social needs. My goal is to engage my students in exploring their educational journey as well as their Language journey, by teaching them the inquiry-based learning method and developing critical thinking skills to prepare them becoming life-long (language)learners. As an African proverb says: "It takes a village to raise a child." I underline the importance of an open dialogue with parents, the collaboration of all teachers and involvement within a community are in my perspective essential elements to a child’s success in and out of the classroom.

Yet to be added

I have a professional certification in Primary School Education and experience gained through ten years of teaching abroad.
