My Summary
About Me
Hi, I'm Kim have over 14 years primary school teaching experience in Scottish, English and international school settings.
A creative, organised and highly motivated primary school teacher; I’m committed to raising standards within education and ensuring all children are able to reach their full potential. I am able to adapt my
planning, assessment and teaching to ensure the needs of each learner are met. I actively seek new opportunities and challenges that will allow me to grow as both a person and a teacher. After teaching
in England for several years, I moved to Bangkok, Thailand to teach at a British International School. I was then offered an opportunity to work in New Zealand, and then to teach in Australia. Since returning
to the UK during the pandemic, I have been teaching in Edinburgh, Scotland.
My Experience
- Curriculum for Excellence
I plan, deliver and assess high quality learning experiences to children to raise attainment and achievement. I have knowledge and experience in applying
curriculum for Excellence principles as well as effectively planning across the curriculum using the experience (Es) and outcomes (Os). I assess, report and record the progress of the children in my class using summative and formative assessment strategies.
