On my students’ learning path, I strive to be “a guide on the side” rather than a “sage on the stage”. I am highly committed to creating an environment not only where students find their own voice and develop skills for tackling the challenges and opportunities of today’s world but also where they feel heard, valued, cared for, and protected. I have worked at an international school setting for 12 years, time in which I have learnt from students nearly as much as I have been able to help them learn. I work restlessly to design and develop well-balanced and equitable lessons, which incorporate all students’ interests, needs, and beliefs. After all, “nothing about [the students] without the students is actually for them.”
