TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have been teaching first and second grades for the last 4 years. Currently, I am on sabbatical in Spain teaching english, art, and learning Spanish.

MY TEACHING STYLE

Interactive, energetic, and creative! I love to incorporate dance, drama, and movement into my teaching as much as I possibly can. Most of my Social Studies lessons have a social justice or global awareness aspect. As well, I practise mindfulness regularly inside and outside of the classroom.
