Clara R.

My name is Mrs. R! It’s good to meet you. I am an upcoming Primary/Junior teacher with three years of teaching experience.

I believe that every student holds unique inner worlds, and as an educator it is my mission to nurture these in every child I teach. Patience, determination, and confidence in the potential of every child to learn are the soil, sun and water guiding my work.

My favorite subjects to teach are English and Science, but nothing will ever beat the feeling I get when a child finally grasps that one Math problem that they never thought they’d understand. No matter what I teach, I always try to end my lessons with a smile for myself and my students.

I can’t wait to meet you and your precious little one! Hope to see you soon!
