Bio
From a young age, I’ve been passionate about becoming a teacher and making a meaningful difference in the lives of children. I’ve always believed that education has the power to shape not only minds but also character, and I feel privileged to play a role in that journey.
Joining the Mayflower community marks an exciting new chapter in my career, and I’m eager to create a positive, engaging, and supportive classroom environment where every child feels valued and inspired to reach their full potential.
I’m particularly passionate about helping students develop a love for learning through creativity, curiosity, and confidence. Whether it’s exploring new ideas, celebrating small successes, or fostering kindness and teamwork, I aim to make each day a rewarding and enjoyable experience for my students.
Outside of teaching, I enjoy spending time outdoors, going for long walks, and relaxing at the beach. These moments help me recharge and reflect, allowing me to bring fresh energy and enthusiasm into my classroom each day.

Why Mayflower?
My values are reflected in Mayflower’s which is very important to me. The significance of collaboration within the school is excellent and I am looking forward to becoming a part of this team.
What I am reading
I have always enjoyed reading since I was very young. I enjoy immersing myself in a range of fiction and non-fiction texts. I enjoy books that have lots of interesting characters and plots. I really enjoy a good plot twist!
What am I Researching?
I am currently researching how the SOI model of learning can be used to deepen understanding, along with how the Walkthru strategies can be used within the classroom to support pupils' learning.
