My passion for education
What is so great about my profession is that every day I come into contact with other nationalities, languages, cultures and unexpected situations without travelling! That pupils from so many different backgrounds can be an example of how to get along with each other makes me proud to be part of this. As an NT2 teacher, I also have the good fortune of seeing returns on efforts very quickly. Many pupils learn the Dutch language in a short time.
As a teacher, I find it important
That pupils feel recognised in their qualities and supported in their development, so that they gain confidence in themselves as they learn.
My best tip for a student to quickly feel at home at a school is …
Dare to show up and make contact.
The most fun I’ve had at school
I have experienced many wonderful and meaningful moments in the 16 years I have worked here. However, what always makes me happy is when I meet a former student who proudly tells me what life after the EOA has brought.
