Summary

I am a passionate and ambitious teacher, my own teaching philosophy aligned with the Steiner approach before I had the privilege of teaching and learning in Steiner Schools. I have taught from Stage 1 through to 3 and have flourished in my current position.

I thrive within, and enjoy contributing to the Steiner school community, including festivals, plays, open days and other events.

I hold the children in the highest reverence and strive to provide them with quality education and nurturance whilst in my care. Relationships are key to a thriving classroom and I would be so grateful to hold space for your school.
