How I’m Learning To Be More Grateful
I’ve always been grateful for everything I have. Or at least I thought I was. It turns out, that I was only really grateful for the things that I had and that I really wanted: a great family life, amazing friends, incredible holidays, trips out, the newest clothes, wonderful books. I’ve also come to realise…
What I Have Learnt So Far as a Teacher
Whoever said that becoming a teacher meant learning new things every single day for the rest of your life was certainly not wrong. Since starting teaching, I have probably learnt more about the profession, about how children learn, and about myself than I have learnt in all of my years of study. Teaching can sometimes…

My TBR List for 2023
My reading goal for 2022 was to read ten books and I managed to hit this target just two days before the end of the year. Whilst I was very happy to have hit my goal, I would’ve liked to have read more books or at least reached the big ten a bit earlier on…
Do I regret becoming a teacher?
Teaching has always been something that I have enjoyed and been good at ever since I was very young, yet it has never been my ‘dream career’. The truth is that I’ve never really known what I wanted to do with my life as I felt drawn to multiple things at once and couldn’t imagine…
My 2023 Goals
Considering that it’s the New Year, it felt right to dedicate a post to my goals for 2023. I’m a very pro-goal person, I absolutely adore thinking up challenges and things that I want to do differently for the upcoming year that I haven’t yet managed to do. However, I’m equally not very disciplined when…
