Negar has been working with young children, as well as mentoring parents and teachers since 2012. She is also currently an instructor at a local Early Childhood Education training institute, helping the next generation pursue their goals of becoming EC educators.  Her interest in ECE first arose from a desire to support children as they discover who they are. Teachers play a vital role in fostering their students’ confidence, creativity as well as other core values for a successful future.

Since 2013, Sheyda has utilised different educational strategies in her classrooms to assist students of various ages, cultural backgrounds and developmental levels to reach their full potential. She has always been drawn to younger students, finding their curiosity for the world around them and their strong ability to acquire new information to be especially fascinating.

Adriana has Reggio-inspired experience instructing and assisting in the classroom since 2014. She likes to explore many teaching methodologies to adapt to the learning needs of her students since she believes that not all children learn the same way and thus their pathways of learning should not be limited. Her goal is to connect with every child by providing them with a safe environment where they can grow independently.  Adriana loves working with students and being part of their journey because their love of learning is so pure and they are not afraid of anything. 

Prior to joining KEY, Christina was guiding children at a Montessori preschool. She has been drawn to the children in this age group, especially by their absorbent minds. She feels that having a nurturing teacher within an academically and socially enriching environment sets the foundation for future success. With her training in Montessori, she understands the areas of sensitive periods for children’s development and tailors appropriately challenging activities to draw out their potential. She takes pride in creating a safe environment where children feel secure and independent enough to become creative problem solvers. As a result, they can apply their critical thinking skills and collaborate with others to create a better future together. She loves to engage with the children in songs, grace and courtesy activities, and story-telling. Her respectful approach gives the child a safe place to grow to appreciate the love of learning.

Breanne feels that providing students with opportunities to engage in inquiry-based learning while problem solving with their peers and teachers will enable them to grow into confident individuals who can think outside of the box or engage in critical thinking. As a teacher who fosters an inclusive classroom community, she personalizes learning to suit individual needs, where students feel safe and secure to take risks. Through her daily classroom teaching, Breanne is very much looking forward to guiding each and every learner towards lifelong success.
