I am so excited to start a new year and I hope you are too!
A little bit about me...
I'm from the United Kingdom and have been at Timber Drive for a year now. Before crossing the 'Big Pond' last summer, I had worked for 6 years at a large primary school in Fleet, Hampshire, teaching the age-equivalent of 2nd and 3rd grade. This class will be my 8th class!
First and foremost, I LOVE teaching! As a child, I was always very shy and nervous around my peers but it took one amazing teacher to bring me out of my shell. She was an international teacher from Canada and, if I'm honest, she's the one who really opened my eyes to the big, wide world out there! That's sort of why I'm here. I want to bring the whole world into my classroom, at every given opportunity!
I also believe that teaching is about building a love of lifelong learning. With each new day comes many new discoveries and opportunities. I always encourage my students to ask questions and constantly challenge themselves. It's the best way to learn!
I hope that your child thoroughly enjoys their 2nd grade adventure with me!
