Overview

I am an internationally-minded and highly collaborative primary teacher with over twelve years experience in International British curriculum schools, inner city state schools and in my most recent post in an IBO World School. I am an enthusiastic, open-minded teacher with a passion for learning and creativity and a strong desire to contribute my skills and experience. As a technology specialist I focus on finding innovative ways to integrate current and emerging technology into classroom practise in order to inspire creativity, critical thinking and enhance learning.
