¡Dibujemos emociones! - Aprendiendo a reconocer emociones y dibujar caras para niños de 5 a 8 años

I’m a UK qualified teacher and have been teaching in state schools for 17 years. Here in the UK we teach holistically from ages 4 through to 11, so our training covers the whole breadth of subjects that a child might learn at school (which is great for a polymath like me). I spent my first 10 years teaching the whole curriculum to mainly second language children in London and the next 10 teaching in small Devon (UK) primaries and living as sustainably as I can whilst developing a small holding.

I guess that I have two sides to my teaching personality. Creatively, I love to teach Emotional Literacy through Art and I love developing plots, settings and characters in Creative Writing. Then I am also a puzzler and enjoy teaching & solving problems in Mathematics and Coding and Science. 

In my own schooling I studied Geography, Electronics, Physics and Maths for A levels (US first degrees) then went on to get a Geography degree at University (US Masters). I’ve been a secret creative writer my whole life and have just fulfilled a grammar/ spelling ambition gaining a Diploma in Proofreading. 

I've always been interested in the way the World works and what my place is in it. Whatever my lessons, I think that making sure the children know what they have achieved is an important part of their learning, both for their next steps and for their self-esteem.

A little note about time zones: If my schedule doesn't work for you in your time zone, please make a request as I am very open to alternatives. Outschool and private tuition are my only work so I have plenty of opportunity to mould my working hours to suit.
