Educational Background

• BA, History, University of Reading, UK
• PGCE, Middlesex University, UK

I’m originally from London and earned my undergraduate degree in History from the University of Reading. I then completed my PGCE at the University of Middlesex, after which I gained 8 years of experience as a class teacher. During this time, I taught in Primary schools in Algeria and Cambodia in addition to the UK.

I joined BIS Hanoi in August 2022 and have thoroughly enjoyed seeing the development of students, both academically and socially. In a positive and caring environment, all students can become lifelong learners.

In my spare time, I enjoy playing the guitar, taking part in team sports, and reading.
