我代表荔湾爱莎国际幼儿园热烈欢迎大家的到来。我是Angela女士，荔湾爱莎国际幼儿园的校长。我有两个成年的儿子，三十多岁，还有两个漂亮的孙子，分别是2岁和5岁。在过去的21年里，我有幸在英国、中东和中国教过幼儿学生。我之所以选择专注于幼儿教育，是因为我热衷于创造一个能够为每个孩子提供支持和帮助的教学、学习环境，让他们可以发掘自己的独特之处，也为养成终身学习的习惯打下坚实的基础。

I would like to send you all a warm welcome from the ISA Liwan International Early Years department. I am Ms Angela, the Principal of Early Years here at ISA Liwan. I have two grown up sons, in their thirties and two beautiful grandsons aged 2 and 5 years old. For the last 21 years, I have had the privilege of teaching Early Years students in the UK, Middle East, and China. I have chosen to specialize in early childhood education because I am passionate about creating a teaching and learning environment that recognises and supports the uniqueness of every child and builds strong foundations for a love of lifelong learning.
For the last 4 years, I have been the Early Years Coordinator and a member of the Senior Leadership Team, at the ISA Tianhe. During this time, I developed a successful Early Years Programme and led the Early Years team to ensure that every student received quality teaching and learning in a positive, happy, and safe environment. Now as the Principal of Early Years, I am very excited to have the opportunity to bring the ISA Early Years Programme to the Liwan Campus.
At Liwan Early Years all the teaching and learning will be centered around every student’s individual learning needs, abilities, and wellbeing. Lessons will be delivered using our outstanding indoor and outdoor teaching and learning environments, where the students will be engaged, motivated and happy to learn through interactive activities that instill a wonder of investigation, exploration, and discovery.
Finally, I really believe in providing an Early Years childhood education where students look forward to coming to school every day. An education where the teaching and learning takes place in a positive, caring, and safe environment. Where students want to have a go, to be the very best that they can be, to have a sense of achievement and to succeed. By developing this positive attitude to learning, the students' confidence will naturally grow and develop, giving them every chance of success as they continue their journey to becoming the next young leaders of the future.

我是荔湾爱莎国际幼儿园课程协调员Joyce。我在密歇根州立大学获得了教学与课程硕士学位，于2021年8月加入爱莎荔湾。我专攻幼儿教育，有9年国际学校教学经验，其中5年国外教学经验。我曾任广州斐特思公学幼儿园课程协调员、北京海淀凯文学校幼儿园和学术团队负责人、美国Post Oak IB 学校主班老师。
ISA代表“探究、成就、践行”，这也是我对教育的信仰。我们鼓励和引导学生探索世界，积极实践自己的所思所想所好。最后，我们希望孩子们能成为成功的终身学习者。
我相信幼儿教育对人的一生是奠基性的。这个阶段的孩子有无尽的潜力和可能性去实现他们的目标，成为他们想成为的人。每天看着学生们成长和进步会给人带来强烈的成就感。
孩子们是不同的：他们有着不同的外貌，也有着不同的玩耍和学习方式。作为教育工作者，我们的工作是了解每个学生的需求和独特性，为我们的孩子提供最好的个性化教育，让所有学生的每一分钟都有意义。

I am Joyce, the curriculum coordinator of ISA Liwan International Early Years. I obtained my M.A. in Teaching and Curriculum from Michigan State University. I joined ISA Liwan School in August 2021. I specialize in early childhood education and have 9 years of teaching experience in international schools, including 5 years of teaching experience abroad. I was the Early Years curriculum coordinator at Fettes College Guangzhou, the head of the kindergarten and academic team leader of Beijing Haidian Kaiwen Academy, and homeroom teacher in Post Oak IB Academy in the United States.
ISA stands for “inquire, succeed, act”. It is also what I believe in education. We encourage and lead students to inquire about the world and actively act out their ideas and wonders. Finally, we expect our children to become successful lifelong learners.
I believe early childhood education is fundamental. Children at this stage have all the potential and possibilities to reach their goals and become the person they want to be. Watching students grow and progress daily brings a strong sense of achievement.
Children are all different. They look different. They play and learn differently as well. As educators, it's our job to learn about each student's needs and uniqueness to provide the best-individualized education for our children and make every minute count for all students.

EY EAL Teacher
幼儿园英语老师
· Ten years of early childhood education experience
· Fluent in Spanish and the goal is to be fluent in Mandarin within the next 2 years
· 10年幼儿教育经验
· 精通西班牙语，目标是在未来 2 年内能说流利的普通话
（Please slide left for English）
您好，我是Alex老师，毕业于幼儿教育专业，拥有 10 年面向 17 个月至 10 岁儿童的教学经验。伴随着孩子们的成长与进步，我和他们一起相处乃至工作的热情每年都在增长。我来到爱莎荔湾不仅是教学，还会为孩子们提供一种文化体验，帮助孩子们从小就培养正确的道德观念和树立正确的价值观，以便将这种个性特征带入他们的青春期。我来自美国，母语为英语。同时我也精通西班牙语，这是美国的第二语言。我的目标是在未来2年内能说一口流利的普通话。
当我第一次接触幼儿教学的那一刻起，我就知道我属于这个职业。看到小孩子们从我的课堂中学习到知识，这是非常难忘的，也带给我最棒的感觉。从那一刻起，我所做的就是提高我的教学能力，以确保所有孩子在完成我的课堂活动时都能记住一些有趣、有用的知识，让他们可以在未来使用这些知识来帮助自己，这就是我的目标。
幼儿教师需要充满活力、适应能力强、思想开放，这些个性品质在教育幼儿发掘自己的潜能方面很有帮助，并让学生利用自己的能力去成长，从而激发新的想法和个人观点。这会提升孩子们的认知灵活性，以学习如何与他人合作解决复杂的问题，同时也锻炼他们的情商。

Hello, I'm Alex a bachelor's degree graduate in Early Childhood Education with 10 years of experience working with children as young as 17 months to 10 years old. Every year my passion to work with children grows as I see them grow. I’m here to not only teach, but to offer a cultural experience where all children can learn morals and values from a young age in order to carry that characteristic into their adolescence. My first language is English being that I was raised in the United States. I am also fluent in Spanish which is the second language of U.S.A. and my goal is to be fluent in Mandarin within the next 2 years.
From the moment I first taught in EY I just knew I belonged. The memorable experiences I have from small children learning from what I taught them gave me the best feeling ever. What I did from that moment on was sharpen my skills to make sure all kids complete my classroom activities with something great to remember, something they can use in the future to help them, that is my goal.
A teacher of Early Years needs to be dynamic, adaptive, and open minded. These qualities can help educate a young mind to find their potential skill set and let them grow using their abilities to spark new ideas, thoughts and personal opinions. This opens a child's cognitive flexibility to learn how to work with others in complex problem solving and exercise their emotional intelligence.

大家好，我是Charlene老师来自中国广东。我在暨南大学获得了汉语国际教育学士学位，并在香港中文大学获得了翻译文学硕士学位。我在美国修读了半年教育心理学，以及在中国科学院心理研究所修读了四年儿童发展和教育心理学。这些学习经历都为我的工作奠定了坚实的理论和实践基础。
我在教育行业工作了将近10年。近三年来，我一直在广州和深圳的国际学校为母语是中文和母语非中文的学生教授中文课程。
我对在爱莎荔湾这样的IB学校工作特别感兴趣，这样的学校不仅教授基础课程，还关怀学生并且激发学生的好奇心，同时也会督促老师保持进步。我很高兴能教授这样有意思的课程，从而帮助培养杰出的全球公民。
学生的成长让我非常喜爱从事幼儿教育，孩子们的奇妙想法会给我留下深刻的印象，听到我的学生用自己的语言来解决问题和解释不同的概念是一件很有趣的事情。我喜欢他们为世界提出的创意，我也很喜欢向他们学习。
学生，尤其是年幼的学习者，在能力、课前准备程度、兴趣和学习方式方面存在很大差异。教学差异化的目的是确保能为所有学生提供教学支持和保持适当的挑战水平，从而使他们顺利进入下一个学习水平。

Hi, I am Ms Charlene from Guangdong, China. I acquired a Bachelor of Art in Teaching Chinese as Second/Foreign Language from Jinan University and a Master of Art in Translation from The Chinese University of Hong Kong. I have spent half a year in the United States studying Educational Psychology and four years at Institute of Psychology, CAS studying Child Development and Educational Psychology. These have laid a solid theoretical and practical foundation for my work.
I have been working in the education industry for nearly 10 years. In recent three years, I have been teaching Chinese for native and non-native students in international schools in Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
I have a particular interest in working in an IB school like ISA Liwan that goes beyond basic curricula to instill caring and curiosity in their students and constantly works towards improving their teachers. I am excited to develop interesting lessons to help provide outstanding global citizens.
The thing I like most about teaching Early Years students is my students. I have been so impressed by the amazing ideas these children have. It’s fascinating to hear how my students approach problems and explain concepts in their own words. I love the creative ideas they come up with for the world and I enjoy learning from them.
Students, especially young learners, vary a lot in abilities, readiness, interest and learning styles. The purpose of differentiation is to ensure that all students are provided with support and an appropriate level of challenge that will progress them to their next level of learning.

I am eager to promote lifelong fitness, and the love of sport, for the students of the early years programme.

The philosophy of ISA Liwan is a large reason why my family chose to be come to this incredible school. I am convinced ISA Liwan will be a special place for all who roam its classrooms and playing fields. It’s emphasis on catering the learning to the individual is a great way to ensure student success. This individualization of instruction will inevitably lead to a happy campus where students and staff are eager and energetic learners, teachers, and doers. It will also help foster growth in all our children and give them the best chance for them to reach their true potential.
One of my aims at ISA is to help convince students and parents, that being active, healthy, and happy, is a live long and achievable goal. I am extremely excited to be a part of the ISA Liwan family and hope to collaborate with you and your son/daughter to help turn this goal into a reality. I am looking forward to the adventure ahead of creating an active, happy and healthy ISA Liwan, together.

大家好，我是 Nasreen老师，一名自 2019 年起在中国任教的29 岁英语母语者。我曾在加拿大国际教育组织和春田幼儿园工作。我专注于幼儿教育，也喜欢拓宽学生们的视野。帮助学生独立思考，以及帮助他们认识到自己的才能并用它来创造一个更美好的世界，是我热爱做的事情。我觉得爱莎有着同样的理念，因此我期待成为爱莎荔湾大家庭的一员。
幼儿学生精力充沛，喜欢探究，他们使教学变得有趣。在他们所处的年龄段当中，情感和个性是成长的重点内容，看到我的学生们在智力和情感上获得成长，是一件很有回报感的事情。我很欣赏IB课程，因为它鼓励学生以愉快的方式做到最好，这是超越传统教学方式的终身学习。
在教学方面，我更倾向于个性化的教学方式，因为它可以让每个学生优化自己的节奏，充分吸收所学内容，并最终掌握学科知识。我们必须承认，即使学生年龄相同，在同一个班级，但这并不意味着他们处于相同的智力水平，而个性化教学会给每个学生一个公平的机会，让他们在没有任何压力的情况下做到最好。它增加了参与度，激发了学生的积极性并能有效提高他们的学习成果。
孩子们有自己独特的天赋，作为一名教师，我有责任帮助他们发现自己的优势并鼓励他们利用这些优势让世界变得更美好。教导世界未来的引领者是一件多么荣幸的事情。

Hi, my name is Ms Nasreen, I am a 29-year-old native English speaker who has taught in China since 2019. I have worked at the Canadian International Education Organisation and Springfield Kindergarten. I specialize in Early Years and love broadening the horizons of my wonderful students. Helping students become independent thinkers who can recognize their talents and use it to create a better world is what I enjoy doing, I feel that ISA shares that same passion therefore I am looking forward to being part of the ISA Liwan family.
Early Years students are full of energy and ready to learn, they make teaching fun. They are also at an age where emotional and personality is a crucial part of their development which brings joy to my heart and seeing my students grow mentally and emotionally is extremely rewarding. I appreciate the IB curriculum because it encourages students to do their best in an enjoyable manner; it is life long learning that goes beyond the traditional way of teaching.
When it comes to teaching, I lean more towards a personalized style of teaching, simply because it allows each student to optimise their pace and fully absorb the lesson which will eventually allow them to master the subject. We must admit that even though students are the same age and in the same class it does not mean that they are on the same intellectual level and that is why personalized teaching gives every student a fair chance to do their best without any pressure. It increases engagement, motivates students and improves their learning results.
Children are talented in one way or another and it is my duty as a teacher to help them discover their strengths and encourage them to use it to make the world a better place. What an honour it is to teach our future leaders.

大家好，我Flora老师。感谢大家对爱莎荔湾的支持。作为幼儿园的一员，一个好老师应该能够使一节课变得有趣。特别是对于一些年幼的孩子，我们需要有更多的爱、耐心和责任感。我有4年的国际学校工作经验。我的母语是中文，我会说广东话和英语。我不想让孩子们觉得到学校后他们必须学习，更希望他们来是享受学习。
在幼儿园里，我每天都需要解决各种不同的问题，这些问题不仅仅是关于学习，这给了我很大的挑战。我希望通过和孩子们一起生活，能够更好地了解他们，并且能积累教学经验。同时，当我和他们在一起时，我会感到无比幸福。
在我看来，沟通、询问和思考是孩子们需要学习的重要技能。每个孩子需要发展的技能可能都是不一样的，老师需要根据他们的实际情况进行评估，找出适合他们的。

Hi, my name is Flora. Thank you for your support to ISA Liwan. As a member of Early Years team, a good teacher should be able to make a lesson fun. Especially for some younger children, we need more love, patience, and responsibility. I have 4 years’ experience working in international school. My mother language is Chinese, and I can speak Cantonese, English as well. I don’t want the children to come to school because they have to. I want them to come and enjoy learning.
In the Early Years I need to resolve a variety of different problems every day. These problems are not just about learning, which gives me a great challenge. I hope that by living with children, I can get to know them better. The accumulation of teaching experience. In the meanwhile, When I am living with them will make me feel happy.
In my opinion, communicators, inquirers and thinkers are the important skills to learn. Each kids needs different skills, and the teacher needs to evaluate them according to their actual situation.

各位家长好，我是Bjorn老师，许多孩子和同事们都叫我Mr B。我来自南非，32岁，是一名专业、热情和干劲十足的人。我在中国进行了接近4年的教学，这是一段美妙的经历。
孩子们有好奇心，我喜欢通过鼓励他们提出问题来激发这种好奇心，因为每个问题都有它的意义。问题需要答案，这是一个让学生运用自己的能力，独立提出解决方案的绝佳机会。我相信爱莎荔湾理念和我相同，都是想培养胸襟开阔的学生。我期待着未来的旅程，我相信只要携手并进，我们可以共同完成伟大的目标。
我非常喜欢看着我的学生成长为充满自信的领导者。看到他们克服英语阅读和写作等学习路上的种种障碍，以及慢慢学会直接表达自己的想法，真的让我很开心。
我关注每个学生，并在他们的学习过程提供帮助，这可以让每个学生充分理解每节课的内容，超越并弥合学习中的差距。因为不是每个学生都处于同一水平，所以创造一个健康的课堂环境尤其重要。
教育孩子绝对是一件让人感到快乐的事情，因为他们都非常善良、有爱心。他们都是具有强大能力的积极学习者。没有什么比改变下一代的生活和教育更有价值的了，未来的问题解决者将让世界变得更美好。

Hello parents, my name is Mr Bjorn and many of the kids and staff know me as Mr B. I am a professional, passionate, and driven 32-year-old from South Africa. I have taught in China for almost 4 years now and it has been a wonderful experience.
Children have curious minds and I like to harness that curiosity by encouraging them to ask questions because every question is worth asking. Questions need answers and that allows students to explore their skills and come up with independent solutions. I believe that ISA develop open-minded students, sharing the same views that I do, I look forward to the journey ahead. Working hand in hand we can accomplish great things.
I absolutely enjoy watching my students grow into confident leaders filled with great personalities. Seeing them overcome many obstacles such as reading and writing in English, as well as being outspoken, truly makes me happy.
I focus on each student individually to assist them in the learning process, I find that this allows every student to fully understand each lesson, excel and bridge any gaps in their learning. Because not every student is on the same level and creating a healthy class environment is important.
Children are an absolute pleasure to teach, as all of them are so loving and kind. They are all active learners with great capabilities. There's nothing more rewarding than making a difference in the lives of our future generation and problem-solvers who are going to make the world a better place.

我相信孩子是世界上最天真的人，他们渴望知识，是世界的希望。很荣幸能成为一名助教老师，在爱莎荔湾传授知识，教导孩子们学会彼此爱护。我认为对于年幼的孩子来说，最重要的技能是学会表达自己，以及在爱莎荔湾度过快乐的童年。

Hi, my name is Josie. I am cheerful and lively, honest and, I have a strong enthusiasm for education. I have worked as an Associate Teacher in an International school for more than 3 years. I speak Cantonese, Mandarin, and English fluently and I can understand a little bit of Japanese and Korean.
I believe that children are the most innocent people in the world, they thirst for knowledge, and they are the hope of the world. It is my great honor to be an associate teacher to impart knowledge and teach them to love each other in ISA Liwan. I think the most important skills for young children is that they learn how to express themselves and that they have a very happy childhood in ISA Liwan.

大家好，我是Melissa老师。我在南非出生和长大，我能说一口流利的英语和南非荷兰语。我和丈夫5年前搬到广州，最近我们迎来了我们的第一个孩子,一个可爱的男孩。我拥有教育学士学位，专门从事从幼儿到三年级的教学。我有 7 年半的教学经验：在南非进行了2年半的教学，在中国的国际学校进行了 5 年的教学。
我确保课程内容以学生为中心，并且保持差异化，以便所有学生都能获取他们需要的教学支持，进而有平等的成功机会。我支持我的学生在安全、温馨的课堂环境中发现和探索新想法。
我喜欢教幼儿学生，因为我发现在孩子们年幼时，对学习保持非常开放积极的态度，并且热衷于探索和质疑周围的世界，这是培养孩子的学习热情并鼓励他们创造性思考的好时机。
我很高兴成为爱莎荔湾创始团队的一员，共同创造一个促进学生成功的环境！

Hi, my name is Ms Melissa. I Was born and raised in South Africa and I speak fluent English and Afrikaans. My husband and I moved to Guangzhou 5 years ago and we recently welcomed our first child, a baby boy. I have a Bachelors Degree in Education and I specialized in teaching Early Years to Grade 3. I have 7 and a half years teaching experience. I taught in South Africa for 2 and a half years and in China at International Schools for 5 years.
I work hard to ensure lessons are student-centered and differentiated so that all students get the support they need and in turn have equal opportunity to be successful. I believe I am there to support my students as they discover and explore new ideas in a safe, welcoming classroom environment.
I enjoy teaching EY students, because I find that while children are young they are so open to learning and enthusiastic about exploring and questioning the world around them. This is a great time to foster a love for learning and to encourage them to think creatively.
I am excited to become a part of the ISA Liwan founding team and look forward to collaborating with other teachers to create an environment that promotes student success!

大家好，我是Crystal老师。我是广州人，自2018年加入爱莎大家庭。我主修应用心理学，与心理学家和职业心理治疗师密切合作，了解幼儿学生发展的阶段性标志和教育需求。我已经教授了六年的IB课程，今年是我教英国课程的第五年，这有助于我全面了解 IB 课程体系和英国的课程平台。
我能使用普通话、粤语、英语和韩语进行交流。我喜欢幼儿教学，因为年幼的学习者总是为他们的学习项目全力以赴，他们也很喜欢与周围的人分享他们的想法。
在与幼儿学生一起工作时，我觉得社交技能和眼手协调等基本学习技能是他们必不可少的。通过丰富多彩的活动，幼儿们将更有能力与同学合作，为小学阶段的学习和终身学习做好准备。

Hi my name is Crystal. I am local of Guangzhou and became a member of ISA family in 2018. I major in Applied Psychology. Working closely with Psychologist and Occupational Therapists, I know developmental milestones and educational needs for early years students. I had been teaching the IB programme for six years and this is my fifth year teaching the British curriculum, which helps me build holistic understanding of how to conduct the IB system and UK platform.
Mandarin, Cantonese, English and Korean are the languages that I can use. I love teaching early years since young learners are always dedicated to the projects they are doing, and they enjoy sharing their ideas with people around them.
While working with early years students, I feel that social skills and basic learning skills such as eye-hand coordination are essential. With various activities, young children would be more capable to cooperate with classmates and get ready for primary schooling as well as lifelong learning.
