My name is Nathalie Stokes and I am an elementary school teacher who merges my love of travel with being an educator by working in international schools. I grew up as an expat with my parents in four countries but have mostly lived in Vancouver, BC before studying in Montreal, QC for my undergraduate degree. Most recently I was working as a founding member of Hanoi Toronto School (HTS) which is a Canadian International School in Hanoi, Vietnam. When I worked as a curriculum developer and focused on scaffolding the school culture I realised I wanted to continue my own education, through the MET program at UBC, to be able to help students and schools be as successful as possible.
