She also worked with children in Germany.
Elmarie received her bachelor’s degree in Education at the University of South Africa and is a certified teacher. Working in different schools and countries gave her the opportunity to learn different cultures and languages.
She enjoys travelling, exploring new places and learning new languages. She is also passionate about baking; loves the outdoors and meeting new people.

I love working with children and it is always my aim that my interactions with them are positive and that my input helps to change their lives for the better. I believe that children learn through play and exploration and that interaction and participation, rather than passive learning, are important for every child’s growth. I want to build a love of learning within my students and encourage clear cognitive thinking in different elements of their lives. It is important to create a solid, well-balanced program that prepares them for a physically, emotionally, and socially healthy life.
