Rachelle Rowan

I have professional certification and experience gained through teaching abroad and developmental courses focused on the Elementary years. My approach to teaching is student centred, inclusive and interactive in nature with learning facilitated by a cooperative means. My goal is to engage my students to develop critical thinking skills to help cultivate vision, imagination and aesthetic appreciation for the beauty and complexities of life and learning. My students demonstrate their learning creatively by means of multiple intelligences. As it takes a community to raise a child, the involvement within a community, the collaboration of staff and an open dialogue with parents are crucial elements to a child’s success in and out of the classroom.
