Summary

I am a dedicated and experienced early years education specialist with nearly 20 years in the field. A highly professional educator prepared for demands of teaching English and young learners. Skilled in fostering language development, managing early years settings, and delivering engaging, inquiry-based instruction aligned with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and the International Baccalaureate. I am looking to work within a British setting in either the role of an early years teacher or an early years coordinator. I have experience of managing people and supporting their individual needs to get the best out of them.
