Sarah Jane Anthony
English teacher
I am a British teacher and have been teaching for over 20 years. I can’t imagine life without teaching. Being teacher is a privilege and an honor. For me, the most important thing about my job is to create happiness and hope.
My passion for teaching and learning led me to founding my own school, Smartenglish Creative Language School. The school specializes in teaching English as a foreign language for children. For the past nine years, together with my team, we have researched and developed our own program and methodology to teach English through creative, sensory and meaningful activities. One fundamental aspect of our philosophy is that if children and their teachers feel happy, safe valued and inspired great experiences of teaching and learning will be produced.
My passion has led me to continue research and development of our Project and now I publish books for teachers and offer training courses at the international level. My mission is to ensure children around the world can benefit from the powerful experience of learning using all their senses.
Where I’m happier is with children because they teach me new things everyday and a happy teacher means happy children.
