Emma S.

Hello, my name is Emma Schumann. I am very excited to return to Dara Academy for my second year teaching Prathom 1 students in the Trilingual E Plus+ Program.

I am from South Africa and I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Art from the University of the Witwatersrand. I started my professional career as a copy writer before moving to Thailand to start my teaching journey.

With my background in Fine Art my teaching approach aims to offer a variety of imaginative ways to learn and engage with English. I believe learning should be an exciting and interactive experience that encourages students to explore and develop their individual creative thinking. 

My teaching style is patient and caring, and I encourage curiosity and continuous learning in my classroom providing a safe space for students to grow and flourish. 

In my free time, you’ll find me reading a good book or exploring the beautiful places in and around Chiang Mai.

I look forward to a wonderful year ahead!
