She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education from Waterford Institute of Technology and is passionate about creating inspiring, child-centered environments that nurture curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning.
Georgia began her teaching career in Ireland and has since taught across Kindergarten and Primary grades in the UAE. She worked at SABIS, Al Ain, where she taught Kindergarten One and later Grade 2, delivering dynamic lessons in English, Math, Art, and Social Studies. She later taught Kindergarten in Dubai, where she led the Read Write Inc. Phonics Programme, taught core subjects including English, Math, and Unit of Inquiry, and integrated the Curiosity Approach into her classroom practice
Known for her strong classroom management and ability to build positive, respectful relationships with both students and parents, Georgia designs inclusive, responsive learning experiences that support the unique needs of every child. She is skilled in continuous assessment and progress monitoring and works collaboratively with colleagues to foster a supportive, high-achieving school community.
Outside of the classroom, Georgia enjoys exploring creative approaches to early learning, engaging with educational innovation, and contributing to the wider growth and development of the school environment. In her free time, she enjoys walking, practicing pilates, and spending time in nature—activities that help her stay grounded and bring fresh energy to her teaching. She believes that a strong partnership between school and home is essential to a child’s success. By working together, we can create a supportive and inspiring environment where every child feels confident, valued, and excited to learn.
