Ciao to everyone from northern Italy!
My name is Lorraine and I have been an elementary school teacher at an International IB school teaching the PYP for over 15 years. I have been the homeroom teacher for grades 1,4 and 5, have been subject leader and media centre coordinator in my various roles. My most recent role was with Grade 5 students (10-11 yo) Last year I decided I needed to take some time for me as a voice inside me was getting louder telling me that there was something else for me. Hence, currently I am on a sabbatical year away from school. I came across the principles last year and have been on a transformational journey ever since 🙂 I feel a calling to share this understanding with others, in particular with youngsters and this is what has brought me here, I want to see and experience ways in which this understanding can be shared with youngsters.
I have two children, 7 and 9 years old, therefore in no small part, this is also a primary reason for participating – the more I can uncover for myself, the more authentically I can model (BE) for them to stay connected to what is.
Thank you for this opportunity and I am really looking forward to getting started next week!
Have a great Friday!
Lorraine
