Welcome to the start of my learning journey in ETEC565A. This is where I will be reflecting on my experiences and demonstrating my learning as I move through the course. I look forward to an enjoyable semester.
I am currently a high school chemistry teacher at the International School of Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia. I taught for 7 years in Coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada before moving overseas to Beijing, China, and then here to Kuala Lumpur. I have now been overseas for more than 8 years. I am currently taking my sixth and seventh MET courses and I am also enrolled in ETEC 533.
I love travelling and living in Malaysia, it is very easy to visit several countries and places within a couple hours flight. Beach, city, or history is all very close and makes for some nice weekends away. I also enjoy running, and do a couple of 10km races every year, albeit for fun, not competition. I’ve also recently started scuba diving and am really enjoying it.
