This is my third year teaching first grade at the Luanda International School in Angola. Working in Luanda is my first teaching position since completing my B.Ed degree in Ottawa. Previous to becoming a certified teacher I taught English in Korea and worked for a short time in Toronto.
I love travelling and am fortunate that international teaching has allowed me to see a lot of the world, but I miss being home in Toronto, where my parents and sister live.
Hi Mrs. Rhena,
My name is Maarten Kooij, you probably don’t remember me but I was one of your students in year 2011-2012 (I think!) in Luanda. I want to thank you for being an excellent teacher, you were always gentle and kind and you made the classroom feel like home.
Right now I am almost done with my bachelor in computer science. Time flies!
