Welcome to WIS! What would you like us to know about you?
I was born Namibian. My religious views are Christian. I am married and a mother of two boys.
Could you tell us a little about your philosophy of education?
Children are naturally curious about the world around them. They love to explore and engage with their environment and learn from what is modelled to them. I am inspired by Montessori methods, especially in the younger age group and use play and concrete methods of instruction.
People often like to know their teacher’s academic background and professional experiences. What and where have you studied? Where have you worked?
I studied at the University of Cape Town. I graduated with a Bachelor of Social Sciences (in Environmental and Geographical Sciences and Psychology). I went on to complete a Postgraduate Certificate of Education. I taught at the Holy Cross Convent School in Windhoek and I have been teaching for 11 years.
What do you do when you aren't teaching?
I prefer quiet spaces and prefer to relax by reading a book and having a strong cup of tea. I enjoy gardening and being outdoors. I enjoy crocheting and doing arts and crafts with my boys.
Why did you choose WIS?
WIS offers wonderful opportunities for professional development and growth as a Teacher. I chose WIS to expand my knowledge and teaching practices.
