I was born and brought up in England but Thailand is a very special place for me and my family. My husband and I moved here in 2005 and both of our children were born here. Ellen is now 14 years old and Lucy is 11.
When they were small, we moved back to England for a few years but returned to Bangkok in 2018. So I have now lived in Thailand for 10 years.I have been a qualified teacher for twenty two years and have taught in Primary schools in England and Thailand. These have ranged from a small village school in rural England to a large international school here in Bangkok and I have loved the variety of experiences this has given me. For most of my career I have been a full time class teacher in both KS1 and KS2, which has given me opportunities to work with children and families from diverse cultural backgrounds; as well as with pupils of all abilities from gifted and talented to those with learning needs such as autism, dyslexia, dyscalculia and speech and language difficulties. My experiences and teaching roles have provided me with a secure knowledge of the Primary English Curriculum. I strive to instill a love of learning in the children I teach by providing lessons which are both fun and suitably challenging.
