In 2015 I graduated with a BSc Physical Geography Degree from the University of Liverpool. Whilst completing my degree I taught in summer camps throughout Italy prompting me to get my PGCE. I completed a SCITT with the Associated Merseyside Partnership and gained employment at one of the partnership schools within the North West of England. My love of travel and longing to experience new cultures and environments prompted me to begin teaching in an international setting and I moved to Koh Samui, Thailand. From there I moved to Dubai, UAE where I have lived for the previous 2 years. I believe my experiences enable me to bring geography to life within my classroom which is something I can’t wait to do at Park Lane.
Outside of school I enjoy traveling and hiking. I have more recently taken up the hobbies of calligraphy and skipping. I’m also very excited to begin living in the heart of Europe and can’t wait to explore the Czech Republic and surrounding countries.
