I thoroughly enjoyed my time teaching in the UK, I am very grateful and extremely excited to continue my teaching career at Britannica International School Shanghai.

BA Hons

During my tour of Britannica last year, I asked a student what they enjoyed about the school, to which he responded; "It feels like being part of a big family." My experience so far has confirmed this comment. Upon graduating from the University of Cape Town, I worked as an ESL teacher in Shanghai from 2015 until joining Britannica last year. I quickly felt part of the Britannica family with being immersed in a positive teaching and learning environment wherein all members strive for progress and excellence.

BA

I graduated with a B.A (International) in French and Irish from Dublin City University in Ireland. During my studies I had the opportunity to enter the Erasmus programme studying for one year at The University of Lorraine in France. Following this, I completed a 2 year Professional Master of Education at Trinity College Dublin.

Having completed my postgraduate course, I moved to Scotland where I lived and worked within Glasgow city. During this time, I facilitated and supported students with SEN and EAL. I taught a range of subjects to students including French, English and Health & Wellbeing. Following this, I returned to Dublin where I taught languages.

BA

I am originally from Colombia in South America. My studies include a B.A. in Business Administration, a training course in Spanish as a foreign language from Cervantes Institute Shanghai and a TELF & TESOL certificate.
I moved to Tianjin, China, in 2015, where I worked primarily as a 1 to 1 support teacher with children with special educational needs. I was also one of the boarding house assistants and taught Spanish as an After-School Activity in an International School.
In 2020, I moved to Shanghai, joined by my wife and our two children. I am proud to be part of Britannica International School Shanghai; this school has solid values and principles. I am ready to work with a fantastic team and support students to become the best they can be.

B.ed. Intermediate & Senior

I decided to pursue my dream of becoming a teacher and finished my degree in Education in 2017.

As a child, I had a few amazing teachers who taught me a lot when I was at school. This made me realize that I can also make a difference in other children’s lives. It is one of the best feelings to see the excitement in a child’s face when he or she succeeds at something. As an educator, I can help them to achieve their goals. I want to be remembered as the teacher who gave every child every chance, everyday.

I will be joining the Physical Education department at Britannica this year. I am very excited as I have always been passionate about sport, I firmly believe that physical education can have a huge impact on students, both physically and mentally. My goal at Britannica is to deliver engaging lessons, foster a love of sport and physical wellbeing and provide opportunities for students to develop their skills in different sports.
