Ekaterina joined ISM in early 2023 following six years in Tokyo, Japan, where she worked at The British School in Tokyo and several international preschools. Her experience has reinforced her commitment to creating a vibrant and supportive learning environment.
As an educator, Ekaterina is dedicated to inspiring students through diverse learning opportunities that foster both personal growth and resilience. She encourages students to embrace challenges, both in the classroom and outdoors, and supports their well-being, determination, and self-confidence. As an EYFS Assistant Teacher, Ekaterina continuously explores new educational methods, innovating in her classroom practices to nurture each student’s innate love of learning.
Ekaterina feels fortunate to be part of ISM’s Early Years Foundation Stage team, contributing to the school’s inspiring and nurturing atmosphere.
