My Favourite Quote
~Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.~
-Leo Buscaglia-
My Interest
Photography
Since young, I have always loved taking pictures of anything and everything I find pleasing to the eye. I always would have a camera in hand, or use a phone, to capture the little moments. Even now when I see something that catches my eye, my first instinct is to drop everything and immediately try to get that perfect shot.

My belief of my role as a preschool educator
~A child's life is like a piece of paper on which every person leaves a mark~
​
I believe that children learn from what they observe around them (people's actions, behaviors, attitudes, mannerism, and so on). Hence, as an educator, I have to present myself in a way that will leave children with only positive influences.
~If a child can't learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn~
​
As an educator, it is my responsibility to teach the children. No child is unteachable, every child just has a different learning style and pace. It is up to me to teach them in ways they can understand.
My belief of children as learners
~The more risk you allow children to make, the better they learn to look after themselves~
​
Only through mistakes, will we then learn and grow. Taking risks is a crucial part of learning. Without taking a chance at trying new things, children won't make mistakes that they can learn and grow from. Letting children take risks allows them to discover things for themselves.
~Children learn as they play. Most importantly, in play children learn how to learn~
​
Self-directed play teaches children coping skills that cannot be taught through instructions, such as compassion, self-regulation, self-confidence, active engagement, motivation to learn and be literate, and so on. Giving children the time for free play allows them to learn skills that cannot be taught in the classroom. True play is child-initiated and child-directed.
