Francesca Da Silva

I first became interested in teaching as a student. Working with children has made me realise how much I enjoyed it. Further experience affirmed teaching as my career choice. I believe the main focus of a teacher is to ensure that children can build their confidence through a trusting and empowering relationship with a teacher in a positive classroom atmosphere. As a creative person, I like to apply my skills to develop class projects that are motivating, challenging and fun.  ISM is a place with lots of opportunities, where all students and staff members are very supportive of each other and I feel very lucky to be a member of this school and I am sure that I can contribute positively to the ISM community.  I am fluent in several languages: English, Russian, Portuguese and Spanish. I have also studied French (which I understand fairly well.)  I like to swim, to play football when there is a chance. My greatest passion is long distance walks, whilst listening to good music.
