Bio
I am passionate about children and teaching and I believe that I am kind, caring and compassionate. I am very active and love to surf and hike, and in my spare time I love to bake, knit and read.
When helping others, it brings me a sense of joy and love. I do not mind helping those who really struggle because I myself was at that stage at some point in my life. I understand that not everyone is the same so not everyone can learn in the same way. I am patient and am prepared to help others when they need it the most.

My Proudest
Achievements
• The two proudest achievements so far in my life is that I earned my Degree and my PGCE Certificate. I've worked extremely hard to get to where I am today and I could not be prouder of myself. My second proudest achievement so far is that after two years I am not able to surf properly.
