Teacher expertise and credentials
Non-US Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Bachelor's Degree in Education from University of Brighton
Greetings! I'm Ms. Riot, a creative teacher (certified, qualified and experienced) from London, England. My teaching adventure began at university after completing my 4-year degree (Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Primary Education) in 2007.
As an elementary classroom teacher, I developed creative classrooms where students felt safe enough to fail. My passion for reading also allowed me to develop a new career as a high school librarian, teaching reading lessons across the school. I have also taught students English up to the age of 16 at a prestigious online school.
More recently, I have worked within the learning department in a large museum, teaching at various online schools and designing curriculum for education resource companies. I also deliver lectures to trainee teachers.
Alongside my teaching career, I have been an entrepreneur. I opened a hair salon which I ran for 7 years. I also ran an entrepreneur support group and worked full-time for a year at a digital marketing agency.
