I have taught in Ireland, United States, the UK and the United Arab Emirates. I have taught every primary grade level. Masters in Education.
My style has evolved and changed depending on where I have worked. When I taught in the US and in the UK, my style typically followed the 'model, coach, fade' format, 'I do / We do / You do' or Gradual Release method. When I have worked in the IB Curriculum, it was much more inquiry based. I have tried to adjust my planning to meet the needs of the learners in front of using the best of what I have learned from each curriculum.
