Hannah Andrews

Having taught in England, Northern Ireland and Australia, I have gained valuable experience in diverse teaching approaches and classroom settings. My classroom is always a welcoming environment with child-centered learning at the heart. Having started from a Teaching Assistant I value the importance of every adult in the classroom and the importance of teamwork, reliability and effective communication.
