My experience
I am an experienced teacher and artist-maker aiming to include creative and inspirational elements to enhance learning and make it meaningful and memorable. I am an experienced leader of professional development and of parent workshops.
I have developed an innovative approach to the teaching of Letters & Sounds in EYFS –‘Fabulous Phonics’ – that brings together stories and songs with real objects and sensory experiences, and includes working in partnership with parents. I am now developing complementary ‘Marvellous Maths’ materials for EYFS teachers.
Come and see me
