教師の専門知識と資格
Hello there! My name is Miss Kennah, and I am delighted to be here to inspire and nurture the imaginations of children. As an advocate of creativity and a firm believer in the power of imagination, I am dedicated to fostering a love for fantasy worlds, mythological creatures, and folklore in young minds.
My academic background includes a bachelor's degree in Anthropology and Thanatology from the esteemed University of Rhode Island, and I am currently pursuing a master's degree in Anthropology from Harvard University. These educational pursuits have deepened my understanding of cultures, traditions, and the significance of storytelling across different societies.
With over a decade of experience working closely with elementary school children, my journey has taken me through various roles, such as a tutor, art teacher, chess instructor, camp counselor, after-school teacher, and babysitter. These diverse experiences have equipped me with a holistic approach to education, emphasizing both academic growth and personal development.
One of the most memorable chapters of my life was the year I spent studying in Stellenbosch, South Africa. Immersed in a vibrant cultural tapestry, I was fortunate to embrace the rich heritage and traditions of this incredible country.
My classes will be a platform for children to explore the realms of their imagination, where they can embark on thrilling adventures through storytelling, engage in artistic expressions, and delve into the captivating world of mythical creatures. Encouraging a sense of wonder, curiosity, and open-mindedness, I aim to provide a nurturing environment that supports the holistic growth of each child.
I am thrilled to embark on this journey with your children, to nurture their creativity, and to ignite the spark of imagination within them. Together, let's unlock the magical potential that lies within each child and empower them to become confident, curious, and compassionate individuals.
Thank you for considering me as a guide on this extraordinary adventure!レビュー
