Summary
I am passionate about children's holistic well-being. As a teacher, I believe that learning is a process of shared meaning-making where genuine and equal relationships are crucial. I also think that learning is not purely cognitive but should also involve emotions, relationships, body, and holistic senses. Meaningful education should be student-centred and have purposes beyond the school context.
