Teacher at MIK since: March 2016

What I love about teaching: I love teaching as it is an opportunity to impart the knowledge and experiences I have gathered over my life and gift it to the next generation.It really is a privilege to be allowed to witness a child having a Eureka moment and a new concept making sense.

What I love most about Beijing:It’s multiculturalism and opportunities.I come from a small community and when I first moved to Beijing the scale of the city was quite daunting. I craved community, but when you look closer Beijing is full of communities, and opportunities. Since living in Beijing I have realised a dream to perform comedy, I have also learnt to dive, worked for charities and also met my husband.

Favourite teaching story:Each year I have taught at Muffy’s has contained multiple experiences I will cherish for a very long time. From the lesson where I taught my class what plants really eat, to the boy who started my class afraid and timid and guiding him to become one of the most confident students in my class. So it is impossible to limit this to one.
