Why did you become a teacher?
I am a teacher in the third generation: after my mother, two grandmothers and aunts.
Innovation
I love conducting lessons-trips to show students the connection to life and the applied nature of knowledge. For example, we went on a trip to the supermarket, to the farm, to the bookstore, and conducted research in nature.
For more than 20 years I have been developing integrated lessons at the intersection of different disciplines and actively using the methods of theater pedagogy: our amateur mini-theater constantly performs on school holidays, in kindergarten and other schools.
Rule of life
When I hear, “You made me a human, I only trust you with my child,” I realize that my work is not in vain.
