Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi, my name is Teacher Ingrid. I have 13 years of teaching experience with the Masters in Education. Since I began teaching I knew that it was my passion. I love to inspire children as they also inspire me with their creativity. I have taught literature and science. I enjoy reading and analyzing books. I also love reading poetry and writing poetry. Science is also something I am very passionate about. I love everything in nature and animals. Researching and learning about how to protect our environment is something l also enjoy doing.
On my free time I will usually play sports such as tennis. Currently, I am teaching my twin daughters who are now in their teens the basics of tennis so we can soon start playing. Photography is another of my hobbies. I like to venture out with you techniques in photography. I have thousands of pictures which have many memories and meanings which I love to share.
I believe that through teaching students are inspired to be great citizens and can enhance their creativity through writing, art and reading. I hope we can share some great classes together.
