One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I came to China, I lived in a tiny village on the west of coast of Scotland, moved to university and worked full time, decided I didnt want to a become a teacher, so I got on a plane and hey presto! best decision ever, seriously if you want to do something, go for it! the sky is the limit kids! :)

Lol, I came back and now I'm training to be a teacher, funny that.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share IB teaching methodology, resources, and everything I have learnt in my training teaching year.

Im training to teach design and Technology so I can cook, build, sew and design.
